How to watch England vs Japan: FREE live streams, TV channels and kick-off time for Nations Championship 2026 game
All the ways to watch England vs Japan for free from anywhere, as Eddie Jones returns to Twickenham for a Round 5 grudge match in Nations Championship 2026.
England will take on Japan in the Nations Championship 2026 at Twickenham. Young back rower Henry Pollock made his second start for the Three Lions, following a poor debut in the recent Six Nations match against Ireland. Pollock has scored eight tries in 14 Test appearances and is expected to play a key role in the match. Japan, on the other hand, have lost all six previous encounters with England but are drawing inspiration from Italy and Samoa's recent victories.
However, Japan will be without their standout player Ryunosuke Ito due to collegiate commitments. The game will be broadcast for free in the US on Rugbypass TV, on ITV1 and ITVX in the UK, and on Virgin Media Play in Ireland. For viewers outside these regions, a VPN such as NordVPN can be used to access the free streams.
