Saturday's clash sees Owen Farrell rested, with Henry Slade forming part of an attacking England backline.

Elsewhere, Maro Itoje is also absent from the 23-man squad as Courtney Lawes and George Kruis start in the second row and Chris Robshaw, Sam Underhill and Nathan Hughes begin in the back row.

Argentina arrive to London off the back of a fairly wretched Rugby Championship campaign, in which they suffered six defeats and finished without a single point to their name.
