Scotland vs England LIVE SCORE – Six Nations 2024: Red Rose face Scots for iconic Calcutta Cup – latest updates

Welcome to Scotland vs England

Gregor Townsend’s side welcome England for a Calcutta Cup match which has taken more importance after a last-gasp defeat to France last time out.

The Scotland coach has made three changes to his starting line-up with Kyle Steyn, Jamie Ritchie and Blair Kinghorn all being included in Scotland’s starting XV.

Co-captain Finn Russell teams up with Ben White, who ran in the opening try in their previous match, with the pair being key to the Scots’ aspirations for a win on home soil.

There are no changes in the front five with Grant Gilchrist and Scott Cummings retaining their positions as locks and Pierre Schoeman, Zander Fagerson and George Turner forming the front row.

Borthwick, on the other hand, has made five changes to his line-up, headlined by the surprising selection of Northampton Saints’ George Furbank over Freddie Steward at full-back.

Vice-captain Maro Itoje, is paired with Ollie Chessum in the lock positions, while the back row consists of Ethan Roots, Sam Underhill and Ben Earl.

Experienced scrum-half Danny Care partners with vice-captain George Ford in the half-back positions with Ollie Lawrence making a comeback after injury to join Henry Slade in the midfield pairing.
