They welcome double world champions South Africa to Twickenham next, who are the most formidable of the southern hemisphere sides.

Both Tom Curry and Immanuel Feyi-Waboso have been ruled out due to head injuries sustained against the Wallabies.

Curry’s physicality will be desperately missed against the Boks’ heavy pack, while Feyi-Waboso has registered a truly impressive strike rate for England, and Borthwick will miss his finishing.

These two sides last faced off in the World Cup semi-final last year, where once again England let a lead go in the final five minutes.

England v South Africa key player to watch

André Esterhuizen (South Africa)

The former Harlequins centre was a ball-carrying force against Scotland, troubling the Scottish backline who struggled to deal with him.

England’s defence has come under scrutiny after two lacklustre displays, and Esterhuizen will challenge the likes of Slade and Lawrence even more so this weekend.
