Match Preview
The Calcutta Cup returns to Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on 13 March 2027 as England host Scotland in the final round of the 2027 Guinness Men’s Six Nations. Kick-off is 16:40 GMT on Super Saturday, and with the championship typically still alive heading into Round 5, this fixture carries not only the weight of one of rugby’s oldest and fiercest rivalries but potentially the entire title race. England versus Scotland at Twickenham is one of the hottest tickets in the rugby calendar — the combination of historic needle, passionate Scottish travelling support and the prospect of a last-minute championship twist makes Calcutta Cup day one of the great occasions in the English sporting year. The Calcutta Cup itself, commissioned in 1878 from the melted-down rupees of the Calcutta Football Club, is one of international rugby’s most storied trophies and its presence adds ceremony and real weight to an already charged occasion. Scotland have been improving consistently and will arrive at Twickenham with genuine ambitions of doing the double over England in the 2027 campaign. For England, lifting the Calcutta Cup at HQ while keeping title hopes alive would be the perfect end to the home campaign. Tickets through the official RFU allocation are extremely competitive for this fixture and resale prices through StubHub and Viagogo can be significant. Book early through official England Rugby channels wherever possible to avoid the premium.
