JUST a few short months after Eddie Jones’ England sealed the 2020 Six Nations title, the Red Rose are preparing to defend their crown.
After a lengthy delay due to the pandemic, England won their first championship in three years after beating Italy 34-5 in late October.
And already the countdown has begun to the 2021 edition of the annual rugby union tournament.
When is the Six Nations?
- England will begin their defence with a Calcutta Cup clash with Scotland at Twickenham.
- The Six Nations 2021 will run from Saturday, February 6 until Saturday, March 20.
- Kick-off in the opening match between Italy and France is at 2.15pm.
Which TV channel and live stream can I watch the Six Nations on?
Every single Six Nations game in 2021 will be on free-to-air TV here in the UK.
The coverage will be divided up between BBC and ITV.
If you want to stream, BBC matches will be shown on the BBC iPlayer while ITV games are on the ITV Hub.
To watch either, you’ll need a valid TV licence – get one here.
