England will play all three Tri-Nations teams in a tough November schedule in 2010. Martin Johnson's men will kick off against Australia at Twickenham on November 13, with a Test against Samoa following a week later.

The Samoans have not played at Twickenham since 2005, a game which was marred by sendings off for England flanker Lewis Moody and Samoa wing Alesana Tuilgai, team-mates at Leicester Tigers.

The Springboks will arrive at Twickenham on November 27, with the series rounding off with the visit of the All Blacks on December 4.

The fixtures mean that England will face Australia three times this season following their summer tour in June, which is also slated to include tour games against Western Force, Australia 'A' and the New Zealand Maori.
