SCOTLAND U20 Head Coach Kenny Murray has made four changes to his starting line-up for this Friday’s Under-20 Six Nations game against Wales at Scotstoun Stadium, Glasgow (kick-off 7.15pm – live on BBC iPlayer).

And once again there are a few familiar faces.

Southern Knight Sam Derrick will make his first Scotland U20 start at Number 8 while team mate Rudi Brown retains his place as openside flanker.

Former Knight Ben Afshar will be scrum half whilst Hawick’s Corey Tait who plays Super6 rugby with the Boroughmuir Bears retains his place as hooker.

Former Hawick player Ben Evans starts on the wing while former Duns player Johnny Rutherford is listed as a replacement.

Gala players, Harris Rutherford and Murray Wilson are in the 34-man squad but will not feature at Scotstoun.

The Scots youngsters performed admirably last week, losing narrowly to a strong England side.

Head Coach Kenny Murray said: “I was impressed by the performance the players gave in the second half last week, but we still have a lot to improve on if we want a good result out of this weekend.

“Wales are also coming off the back of loss, meaning that both teams will want to give everything they’ve got to walk away with a win.

“This week it’s all about being in it for the full 80 minutes and cutting out those errors that cost us against England.”
