The Women's Rugby World Cup is down to the final four teams and the top teams in the world are about to lock horns for a place in the final.
Italy, Wales, Australia and USA were the teams to exit the tournament in New Zealand at the quarter-final stage last weekend, meaning England are the last remaining home nation in the competition.
Having kicked off almost one month ago on October 8, rugby fans have been treated to a feast of entertainment, that of which will come to a dramatic close on November 12 for the final and bronze final.
But before that, it's the last-four ties. Both semi-finals will be played on Saturday, November 5, and will be broadcast live on ITV.
Canada v England - 3.30am UK time
After the Red Roses stuck 75 points on South Africa without reply in the pool stage before easing past Australia in the quarters, Canada have the unfortunate task of facing England in the semi-finals. However, Canada did in fact top Pool B with 15 points, while England managed a point less as they ruled mighty in Pool C. In their own quarter-final, Canada edged past the United States with a 32-11 scoreline at Waitakere Stadium in Auckland.
New Zealand v France - 6.30am UK time
New Zealand are on a roll having stuck 55 points on Wales in their quarter-final. They eased past everyone in the pool stage too (including Wales then, too), with a 125+ points difference on Australia, Wales and Scotland.
France, meanwhile, pushed number one ranked England hard in the pool stages but fell short with a final scoreline of 13-7. France finished second in Pool C with 11 points, before brushing aside Italy in the last-eight with relative ease with a 39-3 scoreline.
