XV of France what composition against Scotland

Third match of the 6 Nations Tournament for the French team which faces Scotland on Sunday 26 February.

Changes to be expected in the XV of France against Scotland? For his first home game in this 6 Nations Tournament on Sunday February 26, Fabien Galthié and his staff could make some changes to the starting XV. One is now recorded since the Montpellier Mohamed Haouas will start against the XV du Chardon instead of Uini Atoniosuspended after his dangerous tackle against Ireland.

Back in the group of the XV of France, Jonathan Danty will not be aligned at the start of the meeting, still considered “too fair”. The pair Yoram Moefana and Gaël Fickou should be aligned in the center.

The probable composition : 15. Ramos; 14. Penaud, 13. Fickou, 12. Moefana, 11. Dumortier; 10. Ntamack, 9. Dupont (cap.); 7. Ollivon, 8. Alldritt, 6. Jelonch; 5. Willemse, 4. Flamen; 3. Haouas, 2. Merchant, 1. Baille

Substitutes : 16. Barlot, 17. Wardi, 18. Falatea, 19. R. Taofifenua, 20. Cros, 21. Macalou, 22. Couilloud, 23. Jalibert
