Wales have made five changes for their trip to Scotland on Saturday in the Six Nations.
Aaron Wainright, Gareth Davies, Liam Williams, Nick Tompkins and Owen Watkin all start as Wales battle a growing injury list.
Willis Halaholo is included on the bench and will make his Test debut if given the chance. Josh Macleod was in line to make his debut at blindside for the injured Dan Lydiate, but he too was ruled out through an injury he picked up in training.
