The second round of Autumn Nations Cup action is fast approaching and offers up three cracking contests.

England and Ireland, both victorious last weekend, go head-to-head at Twickenham while Wales and Georgia are each looking to get up and running in Llanelli.

In Group B, Scotland are looking to beat France at BT Murrayfield for the second time this year – but Fabien Galthie’s men will be eager to mark their return to the field in style.

Behind all these games are a wealth of statistics which give us an indicator of what to expect from the weekend’s action. Let’s take a look at the best of them…

England v Ireland (Saturday November 21, KO 15:00, Twickenham)

Wales v Georgia (Saturday November 21, KO 17:15, Parc y Scarlets)
