England vs Argentina: Max Ojomoh replaces Fraser Dingwall for the hosts

After making his debut for England in the summer, he faced the challenge of becoming fitter and working harder at the back to improve his chances of playing more regularly in England’s midfield.

At club level, he was a key part of the Bath side that won the Premier League title last season under attacking coach Lee Blackett, who has since taken up the same role with England.

Ojomoh’s father, Steve, won 12 caps for England as a striker, making his last appearance in the 64-22 defeat to New Zealand in 1998. He also won five league titles with Bath.

Meanwhile, Argentina have opted to keep his Bath teammate, Santiago Carreras, among the substitutes, after the playmaker was deployed impressively from the bench in last weekend’s win over Scotland.

Argentina scored four tries after Carreras replaced fly-half Geronimo Prisciantelli shortly after half-time at Murrayfield, coming back from 21 points down to win 33-24.

Pablo Matera and Joaquin Oviedo are massive reinforcements in the back row, with Saracens’ Juan Martin Gonzalez and Bristol’s Santiago Grondona starting alongside Markus Kremer.

Newcastle half-back Simon Benitez Cruz forms a midfield partnership with Tomas Albornoz, with Harlequins’ trio of Rodrigo Esgru, Pedro Delgado and Guido Petit also in the starting line-up.

Former Leicester hooker Julian Montoya, now with French side Pau, captains the Pumas.
