    Do...they play too many warm-up games on these Lions tours?

    One man who will not feature tonight is hooker Jamie George - who has been called up to the British and Irish Lions squad after Luke Cowan-Dickie emerged as an injury doubt for the first Test against Australia next Saturday.

    The 34-year-old has been replaced in England's starting line-up by Saracens team-mate Theo Dan, with Curtis Langdon coming on to the bench.

    England's superb 35-12 win in the first Test in La Plata propelled Borthwick's side above the hosts in the rankings.

    Markets still have Argentina as favourites for the second Test but only now by the width of a betting slip.

    So how can a young, inexperienced England, without 13 Lions, back up their victory and close out a seminal series win?

    When England set off west without most of their first-choice side thanks to a certain Lions tour, a Test series against the ever-improving Argentina looked like a bit of a banana skin for Steve Bothwick.

    One excellent win later and the boys find themselves 80 minutes away from a morale and reputation-boosting little win.

    Can they?
