Where to watch England vs. Australia rugby live stream, TV channel ...

After a heartbreaking defeat by the narrowest of margins in their Autumn Nations Series opener against New Zealand last weekend, Steve Borthwick's wounded England side will be looking to bounce back against one of their traditional sporting rivals. The Wallabies are in town for their first match of the end-of-year Tests, and the two face off at Twickenham this Saturday.

Both sides haven't quite hit the heights they'd hoped for in 2024 so far, with England recording a third-placed Six Nations finish before a 2-0 Test series loss in New Zealand over the summer, and the Wallabies finishing rock-bottom of the Rugby Championship table, recording just one win despite sealing a 2-0 series victory over Wales in July.

Both teams also faced the All Blacks in their most recent matches, with the Wallabies once again unable to wrestle the Bledisloe Cup back over to their side of the Tasman following back-to-back 31-28 and 33-13 defeats respectively; and England recording a third-straight loss to New Zealand last weekend – with George Ford putting a last-ditch drop-goal attempt wide in an agonising 24-22 loss.

With England and Australia both looking to kick-start their end of year internationals campaigns, The Sporting News has your guide to all the build-up and action from Twickenham as two of sport's biggest rival countries go to battle once again.

This international Rugby Union Test match between England and Australia will take place at 3:10 p.m. local time (GMT) on Saturday, November 9, 2024, with the game taking place at Allianz (Twickenham) Stadium in London, United Kingdom.

The England starting XV is unchanged – almost – from the side that went down 24-22 to the All Blacks last time out, with the only switch seeing Henry Slade and Ollie Lawrence swap positions in the backline. Slade will wear 12 and Lawrence 13 at inside and outside centre respectively, while Luke Cowan-Dickie and Ollie Sleightholme replace Theo Dan and Ben Curry on the bench.

England starting XV: George Furbank, Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, Ollie Lawrence, Henry Slade, Tommy Freeman, Marcus Smith, Ben Spencer; Ellis Genge, Jamie George, Will Stuart, Maro Itoje, George Martin, Chandler Cunningham-South, Tom Curry, Ben Earl.

England replacements: Luke Cowan-Dickie, Fin Baxter, Dan Cole, Nick Isiekwe, Alex Dombrandt, Harry Randall, George Ford, Ollie Sleightholme.

Australia make just one change from their final Rugby Championship game, a 33-13 defeat to New Zealand – and boy, it's a big one. Hunter Paisami drops out and Len Ikitau moves to inside centre as Joseph-Aukuso Sua'ali'i, who only transferred across from NRL side Sydney Roosters a matter of weeks ago, makes his international debut at 13 for the Wallabies despite having never played a match of professional rugby union before.

Australia starting XV: Tom Wright, Andrew Kellaway, Joseph-Aukuso Sua'ali'i, Len Ikitau, Dylan Pietsch, Noah Lolesio, Jake Gordon; Angus Bell, Matt Faessler, Taniela Tupou, Nick Frost, Jeremy Williams, Rob Valetini, Fraser McReight, Harry Wilson.

Australia replacements: Brandon Paenga-Amosa, James Slipper, Allan Alaalatoa, Lukhan Salakaia-Loto, Tate McDermott, Ben Donaldson, Max Jorgensen.
