The time has come for Scotland v England with the Calcutta Cup and crucial points in this year’s NatWest 6 Nations on the line at BT Murrayfield. Kick-off is at 4.45pm and tickets are sold out.
While Round 1 of this year’s 6 Nations was one Scotland will want to forget – suffering a 34-7 defeat at the hands of Wales at Principality Stadium – the Scots breathed new life into their 2018 campaign when bouncing back in fine style against France securing a thrilling 32-26 win. And it’s the latter form the home side must bring into today’s Murrayfield encounter as they welcome an England team who have 2-0 win record thus far having seen off Italy and then Wales, the latter in a tense Twickenham encounter.
Can Scotland secure a famous win against the Auld Enemy or with the visitors from south of the border carry themselves home with the spoils? All will be revealed in Edinburgh this evening.
Kick-off is 4.45pm.
Tickets: SOLD OUT.
