Howard Packman (full back, Moulton College) and Jordan Onajaife (lock, Stowe School) start the game, with Josh Peters (back row, Oundle School) and Josh Skelcey (wing, Moulton College) both on the bench.

Head coach John Fletcher is confident that his young side has enough talent to succeed, saying: "The programme has been running since August so we're pretty excited to get to the competition phase - it's always the most exciting time for us and for the players.

"Playing Scotland is always a tough challenge but it's one that we're really looking forward to."
