Wales travel to play England at Gloucester's Kingsholm Stadium on Saturday afternoon in the third round of the Women's Six Nations.
Ioan Cunningham's Wales side, the Red Roses and France are the only sides with 100% winning records in the competition so far, with Wales coming from behind for both of their wins against Ireland (27-19) and Scotland (24-19). Reigning champions England, ranked the best side in the world, sit top of the table having thrashed Italy 74-0 last time out after a 57-5 rout of Scotland in rout one.
However, despite Wales' upturn in form and results, fans should remember they face a well-oiled England machine which has been fully professional for three years, whereas Wales only started their professional chapter - with 12 full-time and 12 part-time - contracts being brought in at the turn of this year.

What have the coaches said?
England head coach Simon Middleton: "We’re pleased with our performances to date and this weekend provides another opportunity for other players to step up. Selection has been very tough and I know some players will be bitterly disappointed to not have made the line-up. We said all along we would rotate the squad and we have again this week with another eight either positional or personnel changes in the starting line-up alone.
"However, that also came with the requirement of training well enough to merit selection. Some players have pulled up a little short of that mark and given the intense competitive nature of the squad you just can’t afford to not be at your best. At the same time that doesn’t necessarily rule them out of the rest of the competition or any squad going forward. Those decisions rest with them and how they react to the disappointment of not making the squad this time around.
"Wales’ new contracts have galvanised and lifted their group and that’s shown in the nature of their performances and two wins out of two to date. They have looked well organised and have finished strong in both games, that’s testimony to the work Ioan (Cunningham) and his staff group have put in and of course the attitude of the players. It’s great to see and makes for a top-class game and a stadium that will be bouncing. A good number of their players play their club rugby in the Allianz Premier 15s and they have some real talent."
Wales head coach Ioan Cunningham: "We are excited by this big challenge against the number one team in the world. On average, they are scoring about eight tries a match so we are in no doubt about the extent of the task. However, we want to compete with the best teams in the world so this is a great opportunity for us to test ourselves and progress.
"We are proud of the way we came back to win both our first two games but we must start better and get our penalty count down. They are two of our work-ons plus we need to convert any scoring opportunities.
"The players train and play with and against the England players week-in, week-out so while we respect the side, there is familiarity, not fear.
"We are looking forward to playing at Gloucester. Ten of our matchday squad are Gloucester-Hartpury players and it will be fantastic to play in front of a huge crowd there which will hopefully include some Welsh voices too."
