England vs Australia Predictions - England can see Wallabies off at Twickenham
England are tipped to cover the -8.5 handicap against Australia in their upcoming rugby fixture. Despite England's inconsistent 2026, they have dominated this head-to-head, winning 11 of the last 13 meetings, including a 25-7 home victory in 2025. Australia, meanwhile, have suffered heavy recent defeats, conceding 38, 50 and 43 points in their last three matches. Both teams have shown patchy form, but England's strong record in this fixture and home advantage provide the main reasons for this handicap selection.

England vs Australia Predictions
England were in wonderful form in 2025 but things have not clicked for them in 2026 after a horrific Six Nations campaign. At home, I still fancy them to find some of that form against an Australian side who do not arrive in the best form either.
- England have lost 5 of their last matches.
- England have won 11 of their last 13 matches against Australia.
- Australia have lost their last 2 matches.
- Australia have conceded 38, 50 & 43 points in their last 3 matches.
Head to Head
England have been utterly dominant, leading 11-2 in their last 13 matches against Australia. In 2025, England beat Australia 25-7 on home soil.
England Form
It has not been a good 2026 for England who went into the Six Nations this year as favourites alongside France after their superb 2025 season.
However, after beating Wales in round one, England lost in Scotland, at home to Ireland, away to Italy and away to France. While their performance against the French showed what a quality side they were, the inconsistency of the group came in for much criticism.
During the summer July window, England lost 45-21 to South Africa, beat Fiji 73-8 and won 31-24 against Argentina, reinstalling some confidence within the group.
Australia Form
Australia have had some notable results as their improvement continues ahead of their home World Cup in 2027.
After the opening three rounds of the Nations Championship, Australia beat Japan twice before winning a two-match series 1-0 against Argentina. The second game ended in a draw.
The Wallabies biggest results came in late September, beating South Africa 42-38 in Perth. It showed they had the quality within their ranks, regardless of South Africa fielding a weakened lineup.
However, all that positivity came crashing down in the Bledisloe Cup as New Zealand thrashed Australia 50-19 and 43-21.
Verdict
While both sides form has been on the poor end of the scale, I am backing England to cover the -8.5 handicap.
