Four down, one to go; the Women’s Six Nations reaches its climax this weekend, with a potential Grand Slam on the line.
Just one more win will do it for England, but it’s old rivals Scotland who stand in their way of the crown – a match you can watch free of charge.
A Saturday night win for the Red Roses at Twickenham will end France’s hopes of retaining their title, but should England falter, last year’s winners will be desperate to capitalise when they take to the field in Padua against Italy on Sunday.
Topping off the Round Five fixtures is Ireland’s trip to Wales on Sunday afternoon, with a fourth-place finish at stake.
With no shortage of action in store in what promises to be a dramatic conclusion to another Women’s Six Nations, here’s all the ticket information you’ll need should you fancy taking in a match.
England v Scotland – Saturday 16 March (kick-off 7:30pm) – Twickenham
For Simon Middleton’s players, the brief on Saturday evening is clear: win and the Grand Slam is theirs.
After seeing off the challenge of Italy last time out with flying colours, England will be confident that they can do the business against Scotland.
But any iota of complacency and the visitors will look to pounce, taking confidence from a sturdy performance that saw them claim a losing bonus point against Wales in Round Four.
The perfect venue for a titanic clash, the Home of Rugby awaits as England attempt to wrestle back the Championship.
Tickets for the match are available free of charge, so there’s really no excuse to miss out on history in the making.

Wales v Ireland – Sunday 17 March (kick-off 1:30pm) – Cardiff Arms Park
Just one point separates Wales and Ireland in the Women’s Six Nations standings, with each side boasting an almost identical record.
After last weekend’s dramatic win over Scotland, Rowland Phillips’ side will be buoyed heading to Cardiff Arms Park on Sunday, looking to leapfrog Ireland and claim fourth spot.
For the visitors’ part, they will attempt to replicate the form that saw them burst out of the blocks against France in Round Four, a breakneck 20 minutes must be stretched out to 80 if they are to emerge from the Welsh capital victorious.

Italy v France – Sunday 17 March (kick-off 1:30pm) – Stadio Plebiscito
Whether or not England are to slip up on Saturday night, France will want to end their campaign on a high regardless of the ramifications.
It may well be that they have lost their trophy by the time things get underway in Padua, but last year’s Grand Slam winners will certainly be aware of the threat posed by the hosts.
Victory for Italy, and they would steal a march on their opponents, likely leapfrogging France to bank an impressive second-place – a result that the partisan crowds will no doubt be baying for.
