England will first take on the same two teams that they will face in their opening 2023 Rugby World Cup Pool D fixtures – opening their campaign against Argentina [Sunday 6 November] followed by Japan [Saturday 12 November].

 

Eddie Jones’ side will then play New Zealand on Saturday 19 November for the first time since the 2019 Rugby World Cup semi-final, where England beat the three-times world champions 19-7.

2022 AUTUMN NATIONS SERIES

“These fixtures will be a really important part of our preparation for the 2023 World Cup," said Eddie Jones.  “It’s almost a mini World Cup in itself and we’re fortunate to have it less than a year before the tournament.   “It will be a good litmus test for the team to see where we are at, culminating in playing first and second in the world.  “We saw how much of a difference having a full Twickenham Stadium was this autumn and we can’t wait to play a series of games against such quality opposition in front of our supporters.”
