England coach Stuart Lancaster warns his players to not get complacent on Saturday against Italy in the Six Nations.

England coach Stuart Lancaster has warned his players to not get complacent on Saturday when they conclude their Six Nations campaign against Italy.

Lancaster's side travel to Rome knowing that a victory would give them a good chance of winning the tournament for the first time since 2011.

However, Ireland, who lead the table on points difference, will be crowned champions if they manage to beat France in Paris.

"We can't control anything that happens to [Ireland]," Lancaster told Sky Sports News. "All we can do is control what we can control and first and foremost we've got to get a win in Italy.

"We won there two years ago and just got a win, we won at Twickenham last year but there's a big challenge coming our way and we've got to focus on that and not get too carried away with ourselves."

England completed their first Triple Crown for 11 years last Saturday with a 29-18 win over defending champions Wales.
