England have suffered another injury blow with the news that Ben Morgan has been forced to withdraw with a knee injury.
The Gloucester No.8 failed to recover in time after the opening game against Fiji and he will be replaced by Billy Vunipola who made a barn-storming appearance off the bench as well as scoring a last-gasp try which secured the try bonus-point for England.
The change will see James Haskell come on the bench to cover the back row while Sam Burgess is expected to replace Jonathan Joseph in midfield with Brad Barritt outside him.
Owen Farrell is also believed to have been handed a chance to impress taking over from George Ford at fly-half.
