Head-to-head

There has not been a try-less England-Wales Test since 1978.

Their last five clashes at the Millennium Stadium has not seen a margin of victory greater than 10 points.

England have lost on four out of their last five trips to play in Cardiff, but won their on their last visit in the Six Nations.

England have faced Wales twice before when going for a Grand Slam, winning 24-0 in 1982 and losing 31-32 in 1999.

well 2bf the media was certainly arrogant. yahoo's 6 nations banners for example advertised the 6 nations with a English flag background and no other nations to be seen... things like that really do pee me off. glad wales won
