What channel is England v Chile Rugby World Cup 2023 match on? Kick-off time, TV details and live stream
Check out how to watch England v Chile in a Rugby World Cup 2023 match, including TV details and more.
England are effectively through to the next round after wins over Argentina and Japan, but victory over the latter was marred by boos from fans.
Borthwick’s kick-heavy strategy, despite it yielding a bonus point win, hasn’t exactly ingratiated itself in the good graces of fans or the media as of yet.
The man at the heart of both wins is fly-half George Ford, who filled the void left by the suspended Owen Farrell. With Farrell’s suspension served, Borthwick may now have to choose between the two.
If not for Farrell’s return, the Chile game, with qualification seemingly wrapped up, would have been the perfect chance for Marcus Smith to get his first world cup start.
Before this tournament, 40 of Ford’s 59 test starts had come with ‘Faz’ at inside centre next to Ford. You’ll be hard-pressed to find many voices in the media calling for Farrell to displace Ford outright.
Should that happen, the injection of the captain’s return may be outweighed by the disruption it causes to the team.

England v Chile key player to watch
Owen Farrell (England)
Perhaps the term ‘one to watch’ may be better suited for Farrell rather than ‘key player’.
His likely appearance against Chile in some form will be incredibly interesting to watch, not only to see what level his own performance is at, but how it changes and affects the team’s style around him.
Put him at 10 in place of Ford and we’ll get a glimpse of an England side bereft of the man steering them through the tournament so far. Put him in the centres, and we’ll see how England fare without the explosiveness of either Manu Tuilagi or Joe Marchant.
It’s certainly a conundrum for Borthwick.
