England and Scotland compete for the Calcutta Cup this afternoon in their third game of the Six Nations.

The Red Roses are a point and a place ahead of their opponents in third entering the weekend because of their one additional bonus point. Each team have won one and lost one of their first two games.

Both have lost to Ireland, with Steve Borthwick's side beaten 27-22 in Dublin on the opening weekend, while Scotland went down 32-18 at Murrayfield a week later. However, since then, England beat France last time out at Twickenham, with Scotland's lone victory coming over Italy three weeks ago.
