England has named its lineup for Saturday's Round 3 Nations Championship clash against Argentina as Steve Borthwick's side looks to build on last week's dominant victory over Fiji. England rebounded from its opening-round loss to South Africa with a 73-8 performance in Round 2 and now travels to Argentina for one of the tournament's biggest top-10 matchups.

Argentina, meanwhile, has not yet announced its lineup. Los Pumas bounced back from their opening defeat to Scotland by defeating Wales 35-21 and will be looking to end England's five-match winning streak in the series when the teams meet in Santiago del Estero.

England's starting XV features experienced internationals Ellis Genge, Jamie George, Ben Earl, Fin Smith, Marcus Smith and Henry Slade, while a talented bench includes Tom Curry and Henry Pollock. Argentina's matchday squad features Julian Montoya and Santiago Carreras.
