Wayward Sam Prendergast dropped for Ireland's clash against England

Caelan Doris will lead the side for the Round 3 clash in London, as Ireland bid to build on last Saturday's defeat of Italy at Aviva Stadium.

Jamie Osborne, Robert Baloucoune and James Lowe are named in an unchanged back three, with Stuart McCloskey and Garry Ringrose continuing in midfield. Jack Crowley comes in for Prendergast at flyhalf to partner Jamison Gibson-Park in the half-backs.

In the pack, Jeremy Loughman, Dan Sheehan and Tadhg Furlong are selected in the front row, Joe McCarthy and James Ryan are retained in the engine room, with Tadhg Beirne, Josh van der Flier and captain Doris in the back row.

Farrell has plenty of experience to call on as Ronan Kelleher, Tom O'Toole, Finlay Bealham, Nick Timoney and Jack Conan make up the forward replacements, with backs Craig Casey, Ciaran Frawley and Tommy O'Brien completing the match day 23.

"Games between the two sides have been nip and tuck over recent times and there's great familiarity and respect across both camps," recollected Farrell.

"We know their strengths and our aim is to deliver the best version of ourselves to put us in a position to get the performance that we want.

"Backed by thousands of travelling Irish supporters who come from all over the world whenever we play in Twickenham, it will be another special occasion and a challenge we're excited to face."
