THE LOWDOWN
ENGLAND
England made it back-to-back wins as they secured a victory over Japan in their second game of the Rugby World Cup. It was far from a vintage display from Steve Borthwick’s side but they got the job done and sealed what turned out to be a straightforward win despite only leading by one point at the 55-minute mark.
CHILE
Chile were on the end of another big loss as they went down to Samoa. They conceded 43 points in that game, adding to the 42 they shipped against Japan and they have it all to do to avoid further woe here against an England side that could cause them some real problems.
THE PREDICTION
England will aim to build some momentum as they take on Pool D minnows Chile. The English were somewhat underwhelming against Japan but still ran out comfortable winners in the end and will now look to give Marcus Smith some game time at fullback, complementing Owen Farrell’s return to the side at fly-half. That could result in a more attack-minded game plan and England should be big winners here.
BETTING TIP: England -49
