How to watch USA v England free: Live stream, channel and kick-off time

England fly-half George Ford and an inset of Steve Borthwick.

England will play the USA for only the second time ever on American soil and fans will be able to watch the game free.
While England v Argentina was streamed on FloSports, the USA game will be shown on CBS instead. CBS has also secured the rights to the Lions games in the USA and will be showing the first Test as well as the England game against the USA. You can watch via CBS or Paramount+ here.
In England the game will be shown live on the England Rugby YouTube channel.
Audi Field in Washington D.C. will host the game and it is set to start at 5.05pm local time, which means an 10.05pm kick-off UK time.
Steve Borthwick’s side are fresh from two impressive victories over Argentina, beating Los Pumas 12-35 and 17-22 in their two Tests, the second thanks to a dramatic last minute Jack van Poortvliet try.
England have an unbeaten record to uphold against the Men’s Eagles after seven games against the USA. The last time was in 2021 when England won 43-39 and England have scored an average of 39 points more than their opponents across those seven games. A home win would be a major upset and England will have to avoid complacency to get the job done.
Borthwick’s side has three debutants – Sale Sharks full-back Joe Carpenter, Gloucester lock Arthur Clark and Bath centre Max Ojomoh. It also marks the return to the side of Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, who missed both Argentina games through suspension after a red card against France.
Luke Northmore, who made his debut last week, is one of just three players to retain their place in the side alongside captain George Ford and Alex Coles.
