England and Wales have played each other at rugby union since 1881. A total of 142 matches have been played, with England having won 69 times, Wales having won 61 times and 12 matches having been drawn. There is a considerable rivalry between the sides due to the proximity of the two nations and the history between them.
Apart from their annual match, currently part of the Six Nations Championship, the teams have also met in eight warm-up matches prior to the 2003, 2007, 2011, 2019 and 2023 World Cups, with England winning on five occasions and Wales three, and a one-off match in May 2016 as a warm-up match prior to each country's summer tour to the Southern Hemisphere.
