Steve Borthwick's side have won two and lost one of their first three outings, and securing a victory against their historic rivals on Sunday is crucial ahead of finals weekend at the end of November.

England, who are playing their first home game of the campaign after playing on the road for the first three matches, head into the weekend's action in third in the northern hemisphere pool but just two points off top.

Australia are playing catch up in the southern hemisphere pool, given South Africa and New Zealand have both won their first three games.

They're third after losing two of their opening three outings, but a victory in London could close the gap on the pool leaders depending on results elsewhere.

Radio Times has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch England v Australia on TV and online.
