England trio Owen Farrell, Toby Flood and Jonathan Joseph have claimed that they expect a tough test against Ireland in the Six Nations clash this Sunday.

The squad head into this weekend's battle on the back of a convincing 38-18 win over Scotland, but the players believe that Ireland's win over Wales proves that they face a tough contest.

Ahead of the opening Six Nation clashes, England stormed to victory over New Zealand in their Autumn Internationals and Farrell has claimed that their ability to continue their winning run indicates their threat in the tournament.
