Stuart Lancaster includes Freddie Burns, Nick Wood and Tom Biggs as cover ahead of England's final autumn Test against New Zealand.

England head coach Stuart Lancaster has added three new faces to his squad to face New Zealand on Saturday.

Gloucester duo Freddie Burns and Nick Wood and Bath winger Tom Biggs will train with the England squad ahead of their final autumn Test against the All Blacks.

Lancaster has revealed that injuries to Ugo Monye, Toby Flood and Alex Cobisiero have forced him to bring in replacements.

He told BBC Sport: "Toby Flood's toe has been re-examined and there is no bone broken. But we will need to see how it settles down over the next 24 hours.

"Tom is next in line from the Saxons and we are looking forward to getting a look at him.

"Freddie has been in for two of the last three weeks so we know what he can bring and Nick Wood will provide cover as we manage Alex's knee at the start of the week."

Lancaster is under pressure to deliver a performance on Saturday after back-to-back Test defeats to Australia and South Africa in the past fortnight.
