Justin Marshall, the former New Zealand scrum-half, predicts that England will fall to an All Blacks team determined to issue a declaration of intent ahead of next year's World Cup.

The reigning world champions are 1/3 favourites to win on Saturday and Marshall, who amassed 81 caps between 1995 and 2005, believes they have added motivation to leave their mark in south west London.

"New Zealand know that if they don't make a statement at Twickenham before next year's World Cup, they will come under a lot of pressure if they have to win a final there," Marshall said.

"I believe they are going to make a statement on Saturday. They have the edge over England because they've played a lot more rugby recently with the Rugby Championship. This is the strongest team New Zealand could have selected given that Dan Carter just hasn't had enough time at this level."
