Five Warriors will start once more in a largely unchanged squad with rotations taking place from last week’s win over Italy.

Zander Fagerson start again being joined by Rory Sutherland as he rotates off the bench and into the starting line-up.

The back-row is an all Glasgow unit as Jack Dempsey moves in to start in the back row with Matt Fagerson and Rory Darge. Rory Darge is also named as Co-Captain.

Tom Jordan comes in at inside-centre to join hat-trick hero Huw Jones in the centres, while Stafford McDowall is rotated to the replacements.

Gregor Brown will once again be looking to make an impact off the bench as he provides second row cover.

Jamie Dobie will be looking to make his first Six Nations appearance of the year should he come off the bench.

Supporters can watch the match on BBC One Scotland, with kick off scheduled for 3pm.
