Ladbrokes: England to win (2/7)
“England should be full of confidence as they return to action for the first time since their encouraging tour of Argentina over the summer as they look to get the better of Australia, a side ranked two places below them in seventh in the world rankings. With England’s Lions returning to the fold, we think the hosts should have too much for their visitors in what should be an entertaining clash at Twickenham.”
