Wales’ back-to-back wins at the start of the 2022 Women’s Six Nations were crushed when they suffered a heavy defeat to England last time out.

They would have been hoping to close the gap to the top two after impressive wins over Ireland and Scotland, but in the end they were beaten 58-5 by the Red Roses.

Meanwhile, France made it three wins from three against against Scotland as they secured a 28-8 win to maintain pace with England ahead of what is set to be the Six Nations grand slam decider on 30 April.

But can Wales spring a surprise in this one and all but hand the Six Nations title to England?
