Centre Sam Burgess and fly-half Owen Farrell are reportedly in line to start for England in their Pool A fixture against Wales, replacing Jonathan Joseph and George Ford.

England coach Stuart Lancaster will select Bath centre Sam Burgess and Saracens fly-half Owen Farrell to start in their Rugby World Cup clash with Wales on Saturday, according to a report.

Former South Sydney Rabbitohs man Burgess is in line to replace the injured Jonathan Joseph, while Farrell could replace George Ford from the starting XV that defeated Fiji 35-11 on Friday evening, according to the Daily Mail.

Burgess has made three appearances for England since switching codes earlier this year, while Farrell has 32 caps.

Victory for England would put them on course to earn a place in the knockout stages.
