England are best placed to take advantage of any final-day slip-up by Six Nations leaders France after a seven-try victory over Italy at Allianz Stadium.
London-born winger Matt Gallagher, who qualifies through his mother, makes his Six Nations debut and Monty Ioane returns on the wing, as Ange Capuozzo moves to full-back.. Stephen Varney is named at scrum-half, while there are three further changes in the pack as Giacomo Nicotera, Marco Riccioni and Ross Vintcent all start.
England kept themselves in Guinness Six Nations title contention after beating Italy 47-24 in bonus-point fashion at Allianz Stadium. A five-point maximum took Steve Borthwick's team above Ireland and into second place behind France ahead of the so-called Super Saturday finale next weekend.
After a nip-tuck first-half, England pulled away from Italy in the second half at the Allianz Stadium and produced some of their best attacking rugby of the Six Nations to boot.
England need to find the tries to stave off another cliff-hanger conclusion against Italy in the Six Nations on Sunday.
