Scotland have made just one change to their starting team for the visit of England’s Red Roses to Scottish Gas Murrayfield this weekend.
This weekend’s Guinness Women’s Six Nations match in Edinburgh is set to be an historic occasion. With over 25,000 tickets sold, the clash will be the best-attended standalone women’s sports fixture that Scotland has ever seen.
The sole alteration sees head coach Sione Fukofuka give Evie Wills the nod at outside centre after Emma Orr was ruled out of the remainder of the 2026 Women’s Six Nations after she sustained an injury against Wales last time out. She will partner Meryl Smith at centre.

After her try-scoring return to the team Shona Campbell retains a spot on the wing in a back three that also contains Rhona Lloyd and Chloe Rollie. Leia Brebner-Holden and Helen Nelson continue their half-back partnership.
After making her debut last week, Emily Coubrough retains her spot in the back-row alongside Alex Stewart and team captain, Rachel Malcolm. Emma Wassell and Hollie Cunningham continue their second row partnership, while Leah Bartlett, Lana Skeldon and Elliann Clarke remain in the front-row.
Among the replacements Francesca McGhie and Rachel McLachlan are included. They line up alongside Elis Martin, Demi Swann, Molly Poolman, Holland Bogan, Rianna Darroch and Lucia Scott.
Last time out Scotland were pushed hard by Wales at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, but managed to pick up a 24-19 win over Sean Lynn’s side after tries from Chloe Rollie, Shona Campbell, Lucia Scott and a Helen Nelson penalty proved to be the difference.
Scotland host an England team fresh from beating Ireland 33-12 at Allianz Stadium and are struggling with injuries in their forward pack.
