Allianz Rugby Women's Premiership: how to watch historic weekend in Women's Rugby - TV and streaming

This weekend will see history made with two Allianz Rugby Women's Premiership fixtures being shown on TV for the first time. While we are often treated to one match from the Women's Rugby competition, fans will now have the opportunity to watch the stars on both Saturday and Sunday as the SuperPWR weekend gets underway.

Gloucester-Hartpury have been running wild in the league so far this season, winning all eight games so far and they lead the way by nine points. Saracens currently sit in second, however, and with one game in hand they will hope to close the gap before Gloucester run away with their second consecutive title.

With the Women's Six Nations just around the corner, international stars from across all six countries will compete in the weekend's action and there will be the added pressure of playing for a potential spot in the upcoming European battle. Loughborough Lightning's Emily Scarratt is one such figure who has triumphantly returned from a 13-month injury lay-off after undergoing neck surgery.

While it remains unclear whether the England World Cup legend will be able to make it into John Mitchell's squad, the full-back is all eyes on the prize ahead of this weekend's TV bonanza.
