Championship Dreams: Scotland Eyes Victory to Stay in Six Nations Race

Scotland’s upcoming Six Nations clash against Italy in Rome will see scrum-half George Horne in a surprise start, as coach Gregor Townsend makes three changes from the victorious England match. Regular starter Ben White is rested and Ali Price is promoted to the bench.

Saracens flanker Andy Christie earns his first international start replacing Jamie Ritchie who moves to the substitutes. Cam Redpath who made a positive impact against England replaces the injured Sione Tuipulotu. Matt Fagerson returns to the bench and Townsend opts for a 6-2 split among forwards and backs.

Sitting in the second position on the table, Scotland seeks to sustain their championship aspirations by securing a victory against Italy a team they have remained undefeated against in their past 13 meetings.
