David Wilson comes into England's starting lineup, George Ford added to bench

David Wilson replaces Dan Cole in the England side to face Ireland in the Six Nations this Saturday, while George Ford could make his debut.

England head coach Stuart Lancaster has made two changes to his side for this Saturday's Six Nations clash against Ireland.

Bath tight-head prop David Wilson has come into the fold for the clash at Twickenham Stadium to replace the injured Dan Cole.

The Leicester Tigers player is expected to be sidelined for around three months with a neck problem.

Bath fly-half George Ford has been included on the replacements' bench for Brad Barritt, and could get his first England cap during the game at the weekend.

England have lost to France and secured a win over Scotland during the tournament so far.

England side to face Ireland:

15 Mike Brown (Harlequins, 23 caps), 14 Jack Nowell (Exeter Chiefs, 2 caps), 13 Luther Burrell (Northampton Saints, 2 caps), 12 Billy Twelvetrees (Gloucester Rugby, 10 caps), 11 Jonny May (Gloucester Rugby, 3 caps), 10 Owen Farrell (Saracens, 21 caps), 9 Danny Care (Harlequins, 44 caps), 1 Joe Marler (Harlequins, 17 caps), 2 Dylan Hartley (Northampton Saints, 52 caps), 3 David Wilson (Bath Rugby, 31 caps), 4 Joe Launchbury (London Wasps, 16 caps), 5 Courtney Lawes (Northampton Saints, 27 caps), 6 Tom Wood (Northampton Saints, 25 caps), 7 Chris Robshaw (Harlequins, captain, 23 caps), 8 Billy Vunipola (Saracens, 7 caps)

Replacements: 16 Tom Youngs (Leicester Tigers, 14 caps), 17 Mako Vunipola (Saracens, 12 caps), 8 Henry Thomas (Sale Sharks, 4 caps), 19 Dave Attwood (Bath Rugby, 7 caps), 20 Ben Morgan (Gloucester Rugby, 17 caps), 21 Lee Dickson (Northampton Saints, 14 caps), 22 George Ford (Bath Rugby, 0 caps), 23 Alex Goode (Saracens, 15 caps)
