Women's Six Nations: France v England

Venue: Stade Chaban-Delmas, Bordeaux Date: Saturday, 27 April Kick-off: 16:45 BST
Coverage: Watch live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and online; live commentary on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra; text commentary, highlights and report on BBC Sport website and app.

England's dominant 14-try victory over Ireland in front of the second-highest women's rugby crowd of 48,778 has set up a Grand Slam decider against France for the third year in a row.

Victory in Bordeaux on Saturday would secure a third successive Grand Slam and sixth Six Nations title in a row for the Red Roses.

The competitive nature of the tournament has lacked over recent years, with England romping to big victories, but the decider has always lived up to hype.

Only five points separated the sides at Twickenham in front of a record women's crowd of 58,498 last year, 12 points were between the pair in Bayonne a year prior and four points in 2021.

The Red Roses have had the edge over their French rivals ever since their last Six Nations defeat in 2018, however, they have had to work for it.
