RWC Final 2019 England VS South Africa All You Need To Know

RWC Final 2019 England vs South Africa All you need to know The 2019 Rugby World Cup final is upon us. Here's what you need to know about the clash between South Africa and England on Saturday.

The game, which kicks off at 09:00 GMT, is being played in Japan but almost 6,000 miles away back home excitement has already reached fever pitch.

There is up to an 83% chance of rain throughout the day, with scattered showers expected as well as sunshine.  There could be a high of 18°C around midday which is expected to dip by a couple of degrees for a 6pm (local time) kick-off.

England face the daunting task of trying to match or even improve upon their stunning win over New Zealand when they face South Africa in the World Cup final.

Prince Harry will be in the stands as England face South Africa in the Rugby World Cup final. He's representing Britain's royal family at the match, as Eddie Jones' men face the Springboks for the Webb Ellis Trophy.

It has been 12 years since England were in the final and 16 years since they won it, so fans are understandably excited at the prospect of captain Owen Farrell lifting the Webb Ellis Cup.

After 44 games in Japan, it is England and South Africa who will battle it out to succeed New Zealand as world champions.

But South Africa are probably one of the few sides capable of repelling England in their current form, even if there was nothing pretty about the Springboks’ grinding 16-13 semi-final win over Wales.

The Queen has sent a letter of support via Prince Harry to England's head coach Eddie Jones calling for a "memorable and successful" final.

On the other side of the draw, South Africa spoiled the local party by dumping hosts Japan out before edging past Wales in a semi-final that won't live long in the memory.

Owen Farrell started at fly-half in the quarter-final win over Australia but moved to inside centre for the stunning 19-7 semi-final victory over reigning champions New Zealand, when Ford resumed the number 10 shirt.

Millions more will be watching back home, hoping Jones's side can emulate the 2003 vintage led by Sir Clive Woodward.
