Ahead of this weekend’s Six Nations fixture in Twickenham, here’s our selection of the best England Vs Italy rugby stats from over the years.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

England host Italy in the Six Nations on Sunday, looking to make it three wins in a row since their opening weekend defeat.<\/p>\n

Steve Borthwick’s side were beaten 27-22 by Ireland<\/a> in Dublin, but have since defeated both France and Scotland by a single point.<\/p>\n

Victory against the Azzurri would keep them in with a faint chance of lifting the title, provided France beat Ireland on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Italy, meanwhile, lost to Scotland and France either side of a 22-15 win over Wales<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0best UK rugby betting sites<\/a> expect England to win this one comfortably, though.<\/p>\n

At present, the Red Rose are 1\/20 favourites, with Italy at 16\/1.<\/p>\n

But before the action gets underway, we’re taking a look at the best England Vs Italy<\/a> rugby stats from history.<\/p>\n

England Vs Italy Rugby Stats<\/h2>\n

This fixture is a relatively new one as far as international rugby fixtures go.<\/p>\n

The two sides first met in 1991, with England winning 36-6 at the Rugby World Cup, before going on to lose that year’s final to Australia.<\/p>\n

In total, England have scored 1,224 points against Italy, compared to 380 for the Italians.<\/p>\n

England Vs Italy Head-To-Head Record<\/h3>\n

One of the most one-sided matchups in international rugby, England have completely dominated against Italy in rugby union.<\/p>\n

England have won all 31 meetings with the Azzurri, with zero Italian wins or draws.<\/p>\n

Italy did draw 15-15 with an England Select XV in 1986, but this was not the first-choice England side and the game was not an official test match.<\/p>\n

Biggest Scores In England Vs Italy Matches<\/h3>\n

The most points scored by a single team was 80, by England in the 2001 Six Nations.<\/p>\n

That game finished 80-23, meaning the biggest winning margin was actually a different game.<\/p>\n

In 1999, England won 67-7 at the Rugby World Cup to record the largest winning margin in England Vs Italy rugby history.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
