Just two Summer series games today

England vs Wales 5:30 BST (+1 UTC)

and

France vs Scotland 9:05 CEST (+2 UTC)

A reverse of last week's fixtures, where the home sides won, will the home sides both win today? Bookies say Wales +10, and Scotland +17 - so the money is on home wins

Other warms ups include

Georgia vs Romania 4PM UK

Portugal vs USA at 9PM UK

The red livened things up. Opening game surely at least in jeopardy

Scotland making up for it

7 to 13 penalties. That's the stat for me. Never a chance until we hit single figures at least

The USA could not contain the speed of Portugal’s backs. Portugal will be an interesting team to watch come the Rugby World Cup
