Can England get their first win of November against their old boss Eddie Jones?
Can Steve Borthwick’s men end a five-game losing streak against a Brave Blossoms team coached by their former boss Eddie Jones? You’ll need to watch an England v Japan live stream to find out, and this guide explains how you can tune in, wherever you are in the world.
Kick-off: 4.10pm GMT, Sunday 24 November
Watch in the UK and Ireland: TNT Sports
Watch in the US: Peacock
England are six places ahead of Japan in the world rankings – and beat them comfortably in Tokyo in June – but there’s no question Jones would love to engineer a victory over his former employers. Borthwick has made two changes to the starting XV that lost to South Africa last weekend. George Furbank comes back into the side at full-back (Freddie Steward misses out), while Tom Curry (available again after passing HIA protocols) replaces Chandler Cunningham-South in the back row. Fin Smith gets the nod over George Ford as replacement fly-half.
