Six Nations 2022: England's Joe Marchant will start at 13 against Italy

Joe Marchant will start at outside centre for England against Italy on Sunday in one of eight changes to the starting XV that lost to Scotland.

Twice-capped Harry Randall replaces Ben Youngs at scrum-half, while Jack Nowell takes the space on the left wing created by Marchant's move to midfield.

Jamie George starts at hooker and Luke Cowan-Dickie is on the bench following his game-changing error at Murrayfield.

Leicester forward Ollie Chessum could make his debut off the bench.

In the front row, Bath prop Will Stuart will start as Kyle Sinckler is demoted to the bench.

Maro Itoje moves into the back row to cover for the injured Lewis Ludlam at flanker and Charlie Ewels is brought in at lock.

Alex Dombrandt takes the number eight shirt, pushing Sam Simmonds to the bench, where Youngs awaits the opportunity to become the joint most-capped England men's player of all time.

Should the scrum-half be brought on in Rome, he will earn his 114th cap.

England team to face Italy: Steward; Malins, Marchant, Slade, Nowell; Smith, Randall; Genge, George, Stuart, Ewels, Isiekwe, Itoje, Curry (capt), Dombrandt.

Replacements: Cowan-Dickie, Marler, Sinckler, Chessum, Simmonds, Youngs, Ford, Daly.
