Scotland have not lost at Twickenham since 2017 but admit they do not know what to expect from new-look side
Borthwick has called on the Twickenham faithful to forgive England’s autumn woes. “I ask them to be behind this team,” said Borthwick. “This is the first step in this next chapter of the England team. This is a group of players that care so much about England. I know I do, so I ask [supporters] to get behind this team and lift this team, as they always do.
“The message I give to them will be a pretty simple one in the sense that, in every single study I ever read, the impact of home support is worth more than any one player.” “We’re here to win, first and foremost,” said Cockerill. “It’s the most important thing and what we get judged on. We want to see signs of what we’ve been working on and how we build our game. I’ll take the win because that’s what we’re here for. Playing for England and coaching England is all about winning. But I have a feeling it won’t be 3-0. We want to be a positive team who play a positive brand of rugby that wins the game.
Scotland have won their last two matches against England, having ended their 38-year wait for a victory at Twickenham in 2021 before edging past Eddie Jones’s side at Murrayfield last year. In 2019 they mounted a dramatic comeback in a thrilling 38-38 draw, ensuring they have not lost in southwest London since 2017.
