The ball goes loose and Ollie Chessum smashes it up the field. We will have another scrum.

Yet to settle this one.

There's some early fall out for England, Alex Mitchell has got a wrist injury that does not look good and Sam Underhill got a stinger and may have injured his shoulder.

Nicolas Depoortere is first to open up his long legs. A confident start from France until Thomas Ramos kicks the ball away.

Second time lucky.

False start....

They missed the countdown.

Ian: On paper France should walk this.

We might be seeing an England team ready to move on from the Manu Tuilagi era. He was always outstanding to play with, and if it is his last game it will be sad for English rugby.

Manu Tuilagi's nephew Posolo Tuilagi, who made his France debut against Ireland in round one, was released by Fabien Galthie to play for the Under-20s this week.

Sadly that meant Manu was unable to play against his nephew in Lyon.

"I was gutted," Tuilagi told Rugby Union Daily.

"I spoke to my brother to see if he was playing because I knew he was sick last week, so I didn't know if he was back fit this week.

"I am so happy for him and proud of him for where he is, as he is a good lad. It is good to see."

Sara Orchard is in Lyon with former England internationals Chris Ashton and Matt Dawson.

France have massively struggled without Antoine Dupont this Six Nations as he chases Olympic gold.

Until scrum-half Nolann Le Garrec was thrown in at Cardiff.

Expect energy and 40-yard reverse passes from the 21-year-old in Lyon.

Yes you heard that right....

If France get their dander up then the atmosphere in this stadium will be absolutely electric.

France defence coach Shaun Edwards, speaking to ITV on finishing second: "It will be respectful, this is a vital game for us."

England head coach Steve Borthwick, speaking to ITV: "We always knew we were finishing this tournament with two teams in the top four.

"We wanted to see how we match ourselves against the best teams in the world, tonight is another one of those games".

France are winless at home in this year's Six Nations.

Will they end this miserable run?

This is always a ginormous clash of two big rugby nations. I saw Philippe Saint-Andre last night and he could not stop bragging about last year's result.

• France's 53-10 win in the 2023 Six Nations was their biggest-ever Test victory against England.
• France can win four home successive home meetings for only the second time in the championship's history (after 1966-1972).
• England have not won a Six Nations game in France since a 31-21 triumph in 2016.
• England have scored four tries in a championship game in France just once since 1929 and never in the Six Nations era. They won 31-13 in an infamously violent clash in 1992.

The highlights from Ireland's victory over Scotland which secured back-to-back titles.

If only for that defeat in Murrayfield.....

Would history have repeated itself?

England's last win in France came back in 2016 in their Grand Slam decider.

First-half tries from Danny Care and Dan Cole had given England a five-point half-time lead, only for the relentless penalty precision of Maxime Machenaud to keep France within touching distance.

But a third try in three matches from Anthony Watson calmed rising nerves before a brace of late penalties from Owen Farrell allowed the travelling support to sing their heroes home.
