CARDIFF :Japan coach Eddie Jones has made two changes to his starting line-up for Saturday's test against Wales in Cardiff despite his side playing for a fourth successive weekend.

Jack Cornelsen replaces Ben Gunter on the flank while Keijiro Tamefusa comes in for Shuhei Takeuchi in the front row from the team that started last Saturday's 41-10 defeat by Ireland.

Gunter is unavailable because of personal reasons while Takeuchi drops to the bench.

Veteran loose forward Michael Leitch and back Tiernan Costley are both out with injury, officials added.
