Kelly Brown has been omitted, with Greig Laidlaw taking the captain’s armband. John Barclay comes in at flanker, and Duncan Taylor replaces the injured Matt Scott.

Props Alasdair Dickinson and Moray Low come into the pack along with lock Jim Hamilton.

Richie Gray also comes back into the second row after coming off the bench in Saturday’s 42-17 victory over Japan and he could be joined on the pitch by his younger brother Jonny, who has been named among the replacements.

Euan Murray drops out because of his religious beliefs while Ryan Grant drops to the bench.

Alastair Kellock, who also suffered concussion, and man of the match Tim Swinson, who picked up a shoulder injury, miss out.
