Scotland vs England free streams: how to watch the 2026 Six Nations

In recent years, Scotland have had a strong hold on the Calcutta Cup, although they have not fared well in the Six Nations as a whole. On the evidence of last weekend, those may have been the good days. Gregor Townsend’s men were defeated by Italy in the biggest Scottish downpour Rome had ever experienced.

A backline primed to attack did not break the lines even once, and while Wales remain Wooden Spoon favourites, Scottish fans are already imagining the next worst-case scenario. The only silver lining was that Blair Kinghorn and Duhan van der Merwe did not take part in the embarrassment, with Darcy Graham only appearing as a replacement.
