England interim head coach Stuart Lancaster has named a completely unchanged side to face Italy in their second Six Nations clash.

Harlequins flanker Chris Robshaw remains as captain with last weekend's scorers Owen Farrell and Charlie Hodgson retaining their places in the starting team.

Lancaster has also refrained from making any changes to the bench that arrived in Murrayfield a week ago.

England: 15 Ben Foden, 14 Chris Ashton, 13 Owen Farrell, 12 Brad Barritt, 11 David Strettle, 10 Charlie Hodgson, 9 Ben Youngs, 1 Alex Corbisiero, 2 Dylan Hartley, 3 Dan Cole, 4 Mouritz Botha, 5 Tom Palmer, 6 Tom Croft, 7 Chris Robshaw, 8 Phil Dowson

Replacements: 16 Rob Webber, 17 Matt Stevens, 18 Geoff Parling, 19 Ben Morgan, 20 Lee Dickson, 21 Jordan Turner-Hall, 22 Mike Brown
