Fiji Water Flying Fijians coach Simon Raiwalui says England will come prepared for their Rugby World Cup quarter-final match, after their recent defeat against Fiji in London in August.

He says it’s a totally different match, playing a different team and there will be aspects of how they play that are similar but they will bring new stuff as well.

The head coach says they have played the team, the boys are comfortable, it’s not the first time, so he thinks it will be a good match.

He says it’s about them being efficient and doing the things they do well and giving themselves the best chance to compete.

The Flying Fijians play England at 3am Monday.

Wales face Argentina in the first quarter-final at 3am Sunday, Ireland plays New Zealand at 7am, while hosts France meet South Africa at 7am Monday.
