Fabien Galthie has named his France Guinness Six Nations team to host England this Saturday, making no changes following last Sunday’s win away to Wales.

The French gave their disappointing campaign a boost with their 45-24 success in Cardiff and the reaction ahead of welcoming the English to Lyon has been to keep faith with last weekend's entire match day 23.

England, meanwhile, have made one change to their starting XV, Elliot Daly coming onto the wing in place of the unavailable Immanuel Feyi-Waboso. Ethan Roots and Manu Tuilagi are named on the bench for the injured Chandler Cunningham-South and the promoted Daly.
