Wales fly-half Dan Biggar looks set to play against England this Saturday despite suffering a knee-injury while playing for Northampton last weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At a press conference earlier today, coach Sam Warburton said things were “looking positive” for Biggar, providing he passes more medical tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wales have been struggling with injuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both Josh Adams and Hallam Amos have been ruled out for the rest of the Six Nations tournament. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Josh Navidi and Liam Williams are in contention to play after missing all three of Wales’s games so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
George North has also passed concussion tests, after he was knocked unconscious against France, with Warburton saying he was confident North would be one of the team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
England prop Mako Vunipola will not play on Saturday as he is currently self-isolating against coronavirus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has taken the precautionary measure after travelling back to the UK from Tonga, via Hong Kong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wales’s game against Scotland on the 14th March is still under review, with more cases of coronavirus expected in the U.K over the next few days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When questioned at the press conference earlier today, Warburton said that coronavirus isn’t a concern for the squad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The full Welsh team to face England will be announced on Thursday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
