(Reuters) -Luke Northmore will make his debut at centre as the only change to the England matchday 23 to face Argentina in the second test in San Juan on Saturday, replacing the injured Henry Slade in the starting XV.

Coach Steve Borthwick has kept faith in the team that outclassed Argentina 35-12 in the first test last weekend, despite the fact they are missing a host of players on tour with the British & Irish Lions in Australia.
