BY Philip Bendon  ·  Thursday Mar 14, 2024

France head coach Fabien Galthié has named an unchanged line-up for his side’s final 2024 Guinness Six Nations clash with England in Lyon.

After enduring a mixed run of form through this year’s Championship, both England and France appeared to recapture their form in round four.

Defeating Wales 45 – 24 in Cardiff, Les Bleus utilised their power game to score 25 unanswered points in the final twenty minutes.

Sticking with this formula, Galthié will face a stiff challenge from an English side that derailed Ireland’s Grand Slam bids with a last-second Marcus Smith drop goal.

In other news, Posolo Tuilagi has departed the French senior squad to link up with the U20 squad ahead of their final Championship match.
