The Parc Y Scarlets clash is the second match of England’s International Series, head coach John Fletcher’s side having defeated Canada 55-11 in their opening encounter.

Fletcher said: “We were pleased with our performance at the weekend and our focus is now on how we can improve against Ireland.

“As a coaching team we are always learning and it is important that we continue to challenge these players on and off the field to bring the best out of them.

“We know that Ireland will be at their best against us, so it will be a fantastic experience for this group of players.”
