Ollie McKenna continues in the front-row after an industrious performance last time out, with Dan Halkon joining him in the pack after turning in an impressive display in the second-row against Wales.

Matthew Urwin once again steers the ship from the number 10 jersey, the fly-half having pulled the strings of the Scottish attack in the win over the Welsh.

Kerr Yule continues at inside-centre having caught the eye with ball in hand last Friday, whilst Fergus Watson lines up on the wing as he looks to add to his try-scoring tally for Murray’s men.

Two further Warriors talents line up amongst the front-row replacements, as Joe Roberts – who went 11 for 11 at the lineout last Friday – and Jake Shearer await their opportunity from the bench.

Supporters can watch the match live on BBC iPlayer this Friday night, with kick-off scheduled for 8.15pm.
