Wales (10/11 with -10 on the Betfred Match Handicap) have recalled winger Leigh Halfpenny and lock Jonathan Thomas for Saturday’s Six Nations clash with Scotland at the Millennium Stadium.
Tom James and Luke Charteris are the two players to drop out following the 30-17 defeat to England last weekend, while Alun Wyn Jones keeps his place despite his expension yellow card at Twickenham.
Warren Gatland has called-up prop Gethin Jenkins to take his placed on the Wales (16/1 to win the Six Nations) bench, although the Cardiff Blues ace faces further fitness tests.
The other changes among the replacements see a recall for experienced back Tom Shanklin, while flanker Sam Warburton replaces Jonathan Thomas.
Coach Gatland admitted: “The championship is by no means over. This is a must win game for us and the Millennium Stadium factor will have a big part to play.”
