ENGLAND v NEW ZEALAND FREE BETTING PREVIEW Three Lions and All Blacks locked horns only five months ago in New Zealand with the home side claiming a 3-0 series triumph. New Zealand were a class apart when the two sides last met at the Waikato Stadium in Hamilton in June this year

England have Fijian-born British army lance corporal Semesa Rokoduguni making his debut on the wing. Joe Launchbury has been side-lined for eight weeks after a neck injury dashed his hopes of pulling on the white jersey this autumn. Club team-mate Kyle Eastmond has been rewarded for his recent form with a spot in the centre alongside Brad Barritt while Owen Farrell resumes his partnership with Danny Care. Uncapped pair Anthony Watson and George Kruis will be on the bench for England and hope to join Rokoduguni in making their Three Lions debut.

The Kiwis have lost just twice since hosting the Webb Ellis Cup on home soil three years ago, against South Africa last month and two years ago against England at Twickenham. The All Blacks are coming off a demolition of the United States in front of a sold-out crowd in Chicago last week.

Many first team regulars were rested for the game in Chicago but Richie McCaw, Conrad Smith, Julian Savea, Ben Smith, Sam Whitelock, Brodie Retallick, Owen Franks, Dane Coles and Wyatt Crockett all come back in. 1The Kiwis, anyway, have opted not to bring Dan Carter back into the side following a long-term leg injury.
