Is England vs Argentina on TV? How to watch rugby Autumn International 2022 for free on Amazon Prime UK

England will play their first autumn international of 2022 this weekend, when they take on Argentina. This will be the first of four matches Eddie Jones’s squad play. Their last outing was the summer series against Australia in which England won 2-1 and they will now prepare to face a team who they last played at the 2019 World Cup.

England’s head coach, Jones, has been under growing scrutiny and with the Rugby Union World Cup now only 11 months away, these autumn internationals could signal any changes that may need to occur ahead of next year’s competition.

England are currently fifth in the rugby rankings, but will hope to use these November fixtures to get their name back on the threat list in the world of rugby, after a year which saw them lose three of their five Six Nations fixtures for the third time in five years.

Squad news

Owen Farrell and Jonny May have both been included in England’s squad while Courtney Lawes, who captained England during the Australia series earlier this summer, has not be included due to sustaining concussion in September.
