England will face Japan at the Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on Sunday 24th November. This will be the fourth and final autumn international to be played by England in 2024. In their most recent encounter, England beat Japan 52-17 in Tokyo during a summer tour.
England look to end the Autumn Nations Series and 2024 on a high as they host Japan at the Allianz Stadium this afternoon. Steve Borthwick’s side come into this clash on a five-match losing run, with their last win coming against Japan in June.
Since then, they have lost three times to New Zealand, the most recent being earlier this month. They also suffered a heartbreaking loss to Australia, who won thanks to a try in the last seconds. Last weekend, South Africa proved to be too formidable, so England will need to win and put on a show that boosts their confidence.
Steve Borthwick’s side have lost their past five matches, falling short against southern hemisphere big-hitters New Zealand, Australia and South Africa. They were leading in all three defeats by the All Blacks, before conceding a last-gasp try to fall short against the Wallabies.
