Japan face off against USA in Rugby World Cup Round 3 on Fri 15th October 2027 at Adelaide Oval. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 10:30. In South Africa it’s at 11:30 SAST, 22:30 NZST in New Zealand, 20:30 AEST in Australia and 02:30 EST in the US.
Japan won the last encounter but USA are in the best form of their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by just 4 places in the rankings with Japan in position 12 and USA in position 16, underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for Japan vs USA will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
