Italy is doing very badly in the tournament, coming off a 46-7 drubbing from Ireland in round 4. 

England is 3-1, its only loss coming in a narrow defeat (24-26) against France in round 1. 

England has a shot at the title. If they win and France beats Ireland, and France doesn’t make up the 29-point deficit, then they do. If Ireland wins by as little as one point then England must beat Italy by 51 points because there’s currently a 49-point gap.
