Duration: 2 hours, 30 minutes

Gabby Logan hosts live coverage of Italy v England from Rome, as the second round of Six Nations matches gets under way. It is the first-ever Six Nations match at the Stadio Olimpico, where Italy will play their home games while the Stadio Flaminio undergoes refurbishment.

The Azzurri will be hoping to pick up where they left off in Rome last March, having pulled off one of the biggest shocks in the competition's history with a thrilling 22-21 win over France in their most recent Six Nations home game. But England have never lost to Italy, and were 59-13 winners when the teams met at Twickenham last year, a match in which wing Chris Ashton bagged an historic four tries.

Gabby is joined by Jeremy Guscott, while match commentary comes from Alastair Eykin and Lawrence Dallaglio.
