Eddie Jones’ men won three group games before their final showdown with France was cancelled due to Typhoon Hagibis.

This match-up represents a far bigger challenge than England have faced so far, though Australia haven’t looked at the top of their game and finished second in Pool D behind Wales after being defeated by them.

England have won their last six meetings with Australia – including a clean-sweep during the 2016 tour Down Under.

Australia’s last victory over England came in the 2015 Rugby World Cup pool stages when the host nation was eliminated before the knockout rounds.
