Women's Six Nations - Ireland v England: All you need to know

Ireland host England in the fourth round of the TikTok Women's Six Nations in Musgrave Park on Saturday afternoon (2.15pm).

Greg McWilliams' charges have lost three from three, against Wales, France and Italy, while the Red Roses, ranked world number one, are on their usual course for the Grand Slam, which they have won in four of the last five years that the tournament was completed.

They have beaten Scotland, Italy and Wales by a combined total of 185 points to 15 this season.

Ireland have only ever beaten England twice in the Women's Six Nations and that stat is unlikely to change this weekend.

It's been a very tough slog for Ireland, on and off the field, over the course of this championship. A demoralising opening round defeat to Wales, 31-5, was followed up by a hammering at the hands of the French in Musgrave Park.

There was some hope that Italy might provide a chance for the team to snatch a win but, despite better territory and possession stats, Ireland were not clinical enough in the red zone and were constantly let down at the lineout and by poor handling.

Opponents don't come any more difficult than England, World Cup finalists last year. There are over 50,000 tickets sold for next weekend's Twickenham clash with France so
