There are two changes to the starting XV that defeated Wales 48-7 in the opening round of the championship with Maro Itoje and Luke Cowan-Dickie coming into the side. Itoje returns to captain the team. Elsewhere, Fin Smith is included among the replacements on a 6-2 split bench.
“Playing Scotland at Murrayfield is always a fantastic occasion and a challenge we are relishing,” said Borthwick. “We made a pleasing start to the Championship, but we understand that we must continue to raise our standards. The squad has trained with focus and determination this week, and we’re excited for the opportunity to test ourselves again on Saturday.”
