The FIJI WATER Flying Fijians, who are currently ranked 9th in the world, will be facing England, who have gone up in the world ranking to fourth place after defeating Australia in Twickenham.

Steve Borthwick’s side moved up to fourth place, leapfrogging France, following their 25-7 victory, while Australia remains seventh.

The All Blacks stay second after coming back from a 10-0 deficit to beat Ireland 26-13 in Chicago, but have closed the gap on the No 1-ranked Springboks.

The world champions received no ranking points from their 61-7 thrashing of Japan due to the large gap in ranking points between the teams.

South Africa is currently in first place, New Zealand is in second place, Ireland is in third place while England is in fourth place while France is in fifth place.

Fiji is ahead of Italy, Georgia, Wales, Japan, Spain and the United States of America in the world ranking.

Fiji take on England at 5.40am Sunday.
