England head coach Eddie Jones has again named six players from 2019 Heineken Champions Cup winners Saracens in his starting XV to take on South Africa in the Rugby World Cup final in Yokohama on Saturday. They include 2017 EPCR European Player of the Year Owen Farrell and 2016 winner Maro Itoje, who was man of the match in England’s 19-7 semi-final victory over defending champions New Zealand last week. Hooker Jamie George, full-back Elliot Daly, prop Mako Vunipola and No.8 Billy Vunipola also start, while scrum-half Ben Spencer has made the replacements’ bench, after being called up due to an injury to Gloucester Rugby No.9 Willi Heinz. The Heineken Champions Cup gets underway just two weeks after the World Cup final, with Saracens opening their Pool 4 campaign on November 17 against 2018 finalists Racing 92 in Paris. https://twitter.com/Saracens/status/1189807595902717952 Bath Rugby duo Anthony Watson and Sam Underhill have also retained their places – as have Northampton Saints lock Courtney Lawes, Sale Sharks flanker Tom Curry and Harlequins prop Kyle Sinckler. Bath open their Heineken Champions Cup schedule at home to Ulster Rugby in Pool 3 on November 16, when Harlequins visit ASM Clermont Auvergne in the other game in that pool and Sale travel to Glasgow Warriors in Pool 2. Northampton start a day later in Pool 1 at home to Lyon. Click HERE for the 2019/20 Heineken Champions Cup fixtures
