England coach Eddie Jones has made three changes to his starting XV for Sundays Six Nations visit to Italy - and Maro Itoje is set to make his debut off the bench. Scrum-half Ben Youngs, loosehead prop Mako Vunipola and lock Courtney Lawes replace Danny Care, Joe Marler and Joe Launchbury respectively in the starting team.Saracens star Itoje - who can play in the second row or back row - is named in an England 23 for the first time, and he will wait for his chance from the bench. He takes Ollie Devotos place among the replacements, where there is a six to two split between forwards and backs. Courtney Lawes (right) returns to the starting XV for the clash with Italy Elsewhere, Jones has kept faith with the team which beat Scotland 15-9 at Murrayfield last weekend.Weve made a few changes to the line-up for Italy. I believe this is the strongest 23 to go to Rome and get the performance and result we want, Jones said. Eddie Jones says changes to Englands starting XV dont reflect on anybodys performance in their last match Mako, Ben and Courtney have been pushing hard for selection during training, but they also fit the game plan we want to implement against Italy. Danny, Joe Marler and Joe Launchbury will all have a significant role to play to finish the game.

Saracens Maro Itoje is set for his England debut from the bench We are confident we can go to Rome and win, but were in no doubt of the challenge we face. Italy took France very close last weekend in Paris so theyll be fired up.Josh Beaumont and Ollie Devoto will also travel with the squad to give them an opportunity to gain experience of Test match rugby.
