Here come the players - a cauldron of noise!

Wales' head coach Ioan Cunningham, speaking to BBC Sport: "It is going to be a big test.

"We have focused on what we can control and we have got to do it today against one of the best teams in the world.

"We have picked up some injuries but that is part of the game and we are excited to see some of the new players go."

On Sian Jones: "She is an exceptional young talent and she gets the ball away quickly. She has a good kicking game - hopefully we will see that today."

On England: "We've spoken about shutting their time and space down but they found a way last week and did extremely well. They will want to go for it and we have to stop that."

Predictions, hopes, fears, dreams?

Fire away.

England have lost just 12 Women's Six Nations game since 2002 and have been beaten only once in the competition since 2017.

Wales' last win over England came in the 2015 Six Nations as they won 13-0 in Swansea.

Wales now have more than 30 players on full-time contracts. The investment by the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) into its women's programme has been swift and is accelerating.

However, that investment needs to be repaid with performances. Anything less than another third-place finish and that precious World Cup qualification secured, will be disappointment for Wales.

Closing the gap to England and France would also be significant, not just for Wales but the validity of the tournament and its structure going forward. In 2023, Wales lost by 56 points to England and by 25 points to France - if they can get that 81-point gap closer to 40 we will all be getting very excited.

England head coach John Mitchell, speaking before the game: "We want to continue building on our performances, we got a good start last week and we got tested too.

"Today will be a different story, every team in the second round will be better prepared."

On changes: "We have got a lot of competition in the squad. I want them chasing each other and obviously 100 days ago this combination played against Wales [in the WXV].

"They [players] have belief and that is why I went for them."

On who will be kicking: "A number of them will kick. I am not sure who will go first, it is between them and they are all very capable."

In 2022, England played in front of a record crowd (42,579) for a women's game at the World Cup final in Eden Park against New Zealand.

In 2023, England sealed a Six Nations Grand Slam against France in front of a new record women's crowd of 58,498 at Twickenham.

This year sees another record with over 18,000 expected at Ashton Gate - the home of Bristol Bears and Bristol City - making it the Red Roses' largest home crowd for a fixture not played at Twickenham.

Three years, three records and more to come I am sure!

Last year was another bumper one for the Red Roses' trophy cabinet as they bounced back from World Cup disappointment.

Their hunt for a sixth successive title and third Grand Slam in a row is spearheaded by head coach John Mitchell.

Having joined up with the squad during their victorious WXV1 campaign in New Zealand last autumn, this tournament is his first Women's Six Nations and the New Zealander wants England to play "quicker" than before.

Ahead of the Women's Six Nations John Mitchell called for his side to play quicker and use their talented backs.

An early red card for Sarah Beckett in England's opening victory in Italy resulted in a change of style to a more direct approach.

It worked and a 48-0 victory was the outcome. But expect the ball to be thrown around at Ashton Gate with a full complement of players back on the field.

The big pitch will help!

Scotland put in a brilliant effort but France eventually powered through to make it two wins from two in Edinburgh just now.
