TEAM NEWS

Owen Farrell faces a race against time to prove his fitness as fears grow over his availability for England's Calcutta Cup clash with Scotland at Twickenham on Saturday.

Farrell missed the eve-of-match captain's run because of an unspecified leg injury incurred during training on Thursday and will be given the next 24 hours to demonstrate he is ready for the Triple Crown decider.

Meanwhile, Jonathan Joseph is back in the team, while number eight Billy Vunipola is named among the replacements, having recovered from a knee injury.

In two other changes announced by Jones on Thursday Jack Nowell will start on the right wing and Ben Youngs at scrumhalf. Anthony Watson, also back from injury, is on the bench, leaving no place for Jonny May.
