Scotland continue their 2025 Six Nations when the head to Twickenham to take on England in the Calcutta Cup clash this weekend.

Scotland’s 2025 Six Nations has so far seen them win one and lose one of their opening two matches against Italy and Ireland, both of which were played at Murrayfield.

This weekend the Calcutta Cup is on the line and Gregor Townsend’s side are away from home for the first time in 2025 as they head to Twickenham to face England. The Scots are looking for a historic fifth consecutive win over their arch rivals and to put the disappointment of the defeat to Ireland behind them.
