Lawrence Dallaglio has vowed to use Wasps' Powergen Cup semi-final against Leicester on Saturday to press his claims for an England starting spot.
The number eight, back in the England squad after 18 months in international retirement, is keen to win his clash with Leicester rival Martin Corry.
"There are one-on-one battles we must win and I view every game as a chance to press my England claims," he said.
The 33-year-old has replaced Corry as substitute in England's last two games.
And with England's key Six Nations clash against France in Paris on the horizon, Dallaglio acknowledges Saturday's match is an opportunity for him to outshine the England skipper.
"What we all want is to see England be as successful as possible. Martin and I are no different," he said.
"For that to happen we need everyone playing as well as they can and causing selection problems. That is the challenge we all face.
"I am there in the England squad to compete and hopefully that might turn into 80 minutes. Until then I must work as hard as I can to force myself in."
However, the World Cup winner has played down suggestions he has "talked his way" back into the squad, insisting his battle with Corry should not distract the team from their aims of Six Nations and World Cup glory in 2007.
"A lot of attention seems to be focused on myself and Martin but that must not detract from the team. That has not been my ambition.
"I want England to be successful. Obviously I want to be in the team - but you have to earn your place in the team, starting with Saturday.
"I'll have to play well this weekend because you can't be anything other than that to beat Leicester. It will take our very best performance to win."
