Itoje grabs the restart. Youngs box kicks.

England have won their last four matches at Twickenham since an 11-6 loss to Scotland in February

Tonga began their November tour with a 60-14 defeat to Scotland at Murrayfield last
weekend

Tonga have played five games in 2021 (W1 ,L4) , conceding 215 points and scoring 96

This will be Tonga’s second visit to Twickenham, their last outing ended in an 101-10 loss in
the RWC 1999 pool stage. Dave Tiueti was Tonga’s only try-scorer that day

They did meet in June 1979 with England winning 37-17 in Nuku’alofa, but England did not award caps for the match

This will be the first time the sides meet outside of a Rugby World Cup in a capped match, having met in the 1999, 2007 and 2019 tournaments

Here we go!

We are all set for kick off

A reminder that Owen Farrell has been ruled out of this match. George Furbank takes over the #10 jersey. Mark Atkinson comes onto the bench for his debut. Lawes captains the side.
