England remain a somewhat unknown quantity going into the third round of Six Nations 2022 games with a clash against Wales up next.

Eddie Jones’ men arrived in the tournament with huge pressure on their shoulders and the load didn’t get any lighter following defeat at the hands of Scotland.

A routine win over Italy places England up in second at this fledgling stage of proceedings, three points shy of table-topping France.

Reigning champions Wales came into the tournament with faint hopes of retaining their crown due to a string of injury issues, none bigger than the absence of hulking figure Alun Wyn Jones.

They were swiftly dispatched by Ireland on the opening weekend but dug deep in Cardiff to topple Scotland against the odds.

England v Wales prediction

This feels like a make-or-break moment for Jones on home soil in front of a crowd baying for an impressive performance at Twickenham.

Wales defeated Scotland but they remain understaffed and a shadow of what they could be. England need a big display here, they need points on the board and they simply need a victory. Well, Jones does.

England v Wales prediction: England win
