Owen Farrell of Saracens and son of new England interim coach, Andy Farrell, will start in the centre for his first England cap alongside fellow team mate and debutant, Brad Barritt. Northampton's Phil Dowson will also make his debut in the side and Saracens' Mouritz Botha will earn his second cap in the forwards pack.
David Strettle, whose England caps have been frustratingly limited due to injury, will start alongside Chris Ashton and Ben Foden in the backs. England have a set of new players on the bench with Jordan Turner-Hall, Mike Brown, Lee Dickson, Geoff Parling and Rob Webber all hoping to get on the pitch at Murrayfield.
Russell Hargreaves of Talking Rugby chatted to three of England's new boys and you can listen to the interviews by using the audio players below.
