England travel to Italy in search of Six Nations 2026 salvation on Saturday.
Steve Borthwick's side were tipped to challenge France for the title ahead of the tournament but have fallen to pieces, suffering embarrassing defeats at the hands of first Scotland and then Ireland in their last two matches.
The rest week came at a good time for England, who have rung the changes for the trip to Rome – with a new-look backline installed in a bid to spark them into life.
Italy have relished their role as this year's chief disruptors, beating Scotland at the Stadio Olimpico, pushing Ireland close in Dublin, and battling hard against France.
They will look to make the most of the pressure on the visitors as they hunt their first victory against England.
