Eddie Jones wants Japan to pile pressure on 'distracted' England at Twickenham

Former England head coach Eddie Jones says Japan will look to exploit any lack of focus when they face Steve Borthwick's side at Twickenham on Saturday.

Jones, now in his second spell in charge of Japan, believes the Brave Blossoms can unsettle England by disrupting their game and turning the home crowd against them.

Japan are significant underdogs, but Jones sees an opportunity to create chaos, particularly with England already looking ahead to next week's clash with New Zealand.

"We've got to find a way to disrupt an England side that's looking at New Zealand next week and sometimes may be a little bit distracted," Jones told the BBC.

The Australian also believes the intense media scrutiny surrounding English rugby can increase pressure on players, potentially working in Japan's favour.

England head into the match after an impressive 45-22 victory over Australia, which eased some of the pressure on Borthwick following a difficult period.

Jones nevertheless praised his former colleague, describing Borthwick as an outstanding and intelligent coach.
