Jose has brought his sons Gabriel, 9, and Sacha, 8, from their home in Lyon to see Chile in action against England.

Sacha (left) plays rugby but Gabriel (right) is more of a Marcelo Salas, prefering the round ball.

Jose is philosophical about his team's afternoon. "It is not about victory, it is about the pleasure of the game," he says.

The Rugby Union Daily podcast had a visit from Marcus Smith early on this week.

The Harlequins fly-half is today featuring at full-back: "Hopefully I can add something slightly different from the back in my own personal way.

"It has added a string to my game and I am excited to hopefully show that."

Usual starting full-back Freddie Steward is not in the squad today: "Freddie is brilliant to learn off." Smith said.

"He is world class with his high-ball work and to have him on my doorstep to ask questions to and seek opinions on covering the backfield, which he does so brilliantly, is massive for me."

With 144 starts at fly-half for Harlequins and England, and zero in any other position, Marcus Smith has been deployed at 15.

The 24-year-old has added some razzle-dazzle in star turns off the bench, but shining amid broken field and broken bodies is one thing, taking on the responsibilities from the start is another.

Chile will need only a cursory look at England to note that Smith, at 5ft 9in, won't own the air like 6ft 5in Freddie Steward.

England are gambling that their opponents will be too preoccupied in defence to exploit that obvious vulnerability.

The England players arrived a bit earlier this afternoon. Replacements George Ford and Joe Marler fully focused...

The Stade Pierre Mauroy is one of your modern-day out-of-town monsters. Topped off in 2012, it was one of the venues for the Euro 2016, staging six matches.

It is dry, autumnal day - no excuse for any handling errors today.

Apparently it's only 82 minutes on the train from London to Lille, so no surprises to see plenty of them arriving at the stadium...

It's all about Owen Farrell today I think. Is he the man to start at 10 for England going forwards? Or will he come into the centre? Or not at all?

Let us know the pros and cons...

England captain Owen Farrell on the possibility of having himself, George Ford and Marcus Smith on the pitch at the same time:

“Having two very good players around you is always a pretty big plus. As fly-halves, we are pretty open, we are constantly talking about the game to get on to the same page about the team. Over the course of the last however many weeks I’d hope that we’ve developed a better relationship and hopefully you’ll see that.”

Owen Farrell starts at 10 today. The England captain has spent matchdays in the stands so far at the Rugby World Cup, serving out the second half of a four-match ban.

Despite being picked at fly-half, Farrell's likeliest route back into Borthwick's first-choice XV still appears to be to convince the coach that his game-reading ability and bar-raising standards trump the power and pace of Manu Tuilagi and Joe Marchant's midfield partnership.

Let's see how he gets on.

England will all but seal their place in the knockout stage of the Rugby World Cup if they beat Chile.

Steve Borthwick's men are top of the group after beating Argentina and Japan in their opening two matches in France.

England have recalled captain Owen Farrell to the starting line-up after he was banned for the first two games.

Chile are playing at their first World Cup and are bottom of the pool after losing to Samoa and Japan.

The South American side have scored three tries and conceded 11 in their opening two matches.

With 13 changes to the team and a possible change in tack, style wise, what can we expect from England this afternoon?

Chile are the lowest ranked side at the World Cup so points on the board would certainly be nice. It's a chance for some players to win a place in the first XV and a chance at redemption for captain Owen Farrell.
