Scotland prop Zander Fagerson will return for Saturday’s Six Nations meeting with Wales at Murrayfield.

The Glasgow Warriors tighthead has recovered from a hamstring injury sustained in early December.

Veteran WP Nel drops to the bench in the only change from the side that started last weekend’s 29-23 win over England at Twickenham.

Hamish Watson is still not in the matchday 23 despite recovering from concussion.

Flanker Watson was concussed while playing against New Zealand in November but made his Edinburgh return on the weekend before the Six Nations started.

Scotland are aiming to make it two wins from two in the tournament for the first time since 1996, having suffered narrow defeats to Wales on the second week in each of the past two years.

Scotland: Hogg, Steyn, Jones, Tuipulotu, Van der Merwe; Russell, White; Schoeman, Turner, Fagerson; R Gray, Gilchrist; Ritchie (capt), Crosbie, M Fagerson.

Replacements: Brown, Bhatti, Nel, J Gray, Dempsey, Horne, Kinghorn, Harris.
