    The Wales forwards are so tight and they are not interested in giving it to the backs. It's all about testing England's fringe defence.

    Emma Gregory: Got on the Beeb feed for the first two England matches of the Six Nations. Work mates have given me the challenge of achieving the Grand Slam of Beeb feed messages... Under more pressure than the England and Wales teams today.

    Go on then Emma...

    Ken Owens' throw is nabbed by Courtney Lawes!

    Wales' line-out was a possession factory last year. This season it is spluttering.

    This crowd won't be giving Jaco Peyper an inch. Every questionable tackle is met with widespread boos and cries of 'SIR?!'

    The crowd are making a lot of that tackle but I don't think Owen Farrell was that late.

    The first bit of biff aimed at Gareth Anscombe and it comes from his opposite number.

    The Wales fly-half cross-kicks with a penalty advantage in his back pocket. Owen Farrell arrives with a big shoulder a fraction of second later.

    Legitimate rules the referee and I think he got there just in time.

    Wales have kicked into the England 22m. They will throw in...

    There was a huge roar from the home crowd to greet that knock-on from Courtney Lawes.

    There's a febrile atmosphere inside the Principality Stadium, and a physicality on the pitch to match it.

    That's a poor decision, nothing wrong with the tackle - it's a contact sport.

    Hang on. Jaco Peyper is taking play back for Justin Tipuric's tackle on Billy Vunipola.

    The referee judges that Tipuric has not wrapped his arms in the tackle. It was marginal. Owen Farrell better be careful if that is the standard.

    Anyway, a penalty just near halfway that Elliot Daly is going to have a hoof at...

    England have set their stall out early with their big runners, but the defence has been good so far.

    Billy Vunipola is sent crashing as Justin Tipuric throws himself in front of the England number eight's thundering hooves.

    Tom Curry is hauled to the floor by Justin Tipuric after a bustling run.

    But Wales have won that collsion. Ben Moon spills the ball into contact and the hosts have the put-in to the scrum.

    Ready? Jaco Peyper blows his whistle, Owen Farrell takes a last glance left to his forwards and sends the ball tumbling into the sky.

    Ross Moriarty is scragged in his own 22.

    We are up and running...

    Don't be wandering off to make a tea during the anthems.

    England have started faster than a dragster recently, scoring a try inside the first four minutes of their last five Tests.

    Can they plot a way through to silence the Cardiff cachophony?

    Fantastic day, a great atmosphere in the city, these are the days why you play the game - but now the talking stops.

    Crank it up to 11 Spinal-Tap style.

    The home team, backed by a chorus line of 65,000, rattle the Principality rafters with their rendition of the Welsh national anthem.

    Go time.

    Looking out at the crowd, it's a sea of red. But that rendition of God Save The Queen was surprisingly loud.

    Time to stop talking, time to start doing. Emotion will play a part, but make sure you make right decisions.

    The two teams stride out side by side amid pyro, noise and fluttering flags.

    Sam Warburton

    I think it's going to be one score in it. Both teams have world class players and have prepared very well, so it's the team who turn up in the right frame of mind who will win.
