England face tough France test at DW Stadium in Rugby League World Cup, says head coach Steve McNamara England go into Saturday's World Cup quarter-final against France as favourites, with a fully fit squad, but Steve McNamara, the coach, is refusing to look ahead to the predicted semi-final showdown with defending champions New Zealand. "France are going to be really tough," McNamara said of England's opponents. They showed that when they stood up to Samoa, they were really brave and pretty heroic at times under some real pressure and they showed they have got a lot of spirit within their team. They are dangerous opposition for us. Rob Burrow has recovered from a head knock he sustained in the win against Fiji but will have further tests to confirm whether he is fit to face France in Wigan on Saturday night. Ben Westwood, the second row, is also cleared to play after escaping punishment for a challenge on Fiji's Tariq Sims which was put on report. McNamara said: "We are pretty healthy but there are a few things to work out regarding selection. We didn't know our opposition until last night and we have to work out which players best suit the opposition. The 17 selected this week will not necessarily be the 17 in the semi-final if we get through. World Cup quarter-finals: Friday New Zealand v Scotland (Headingley, 8pm). Saturday Australia v USA (Wrexham, 1pm), England v France (Wigan, 8pm). Sunday Samoa v Fiji (Warrington, 3pm).
