Italy and Scotland both have a single win to their name so far in the championship, with the Italians edging Scotland in points thanks to a bonus point win over Ireland in round two.

After which they were thoroughly outplayed by France in the latest round.

Scotland, meanwhile, are coming off a brutal 48-point loss to England, in which they failed to score a single point in front of a sold-out crowd at Hive Stadium in Edinburgh.

While they were outplayed by England, there were fruitful moments in attack that they just couldn't capitalise on. Bryan Easson will be hoping that the game against Italy will be a more realistic chance for Scotland to get back into their groove

Italy struggled against France, and by the second half were down 26-3, but they showed some green shoots in the form of their maul, which caused France problems at times.

They almost scored twice from close range off the maul platform, and it’ll be a key area for Scotland to shut down.
