Scotland backed to cause upset at Murrayfield. (getty images)

Scotland host France at Murrayfield in the Autumn Nations Cup on Sunday. The French have not won at Murrayfield since 2014, a run of 4 matches and the Scots will be confidence of extending their four-match winning streak.

Scotland Form

Scotland are in superb form and will be full of confidence ahead of this clash with France. The Scots have won their last four matches – that run began with a 28-17 win at Murrayfield against France.

Last week Scotland began their Autumn Nations Cup campaign with a 28-17 away win against Italy. It wasn’t Scotland’s finest performance but they will lift themselves to face France.

The one negative for Scotland is that they are used to their home matches having a packed house of singing fans. They will need to somehow ensure the French know this is indeed an away match.

Scotland Team News

Duncan Weir should continue at fly-half in the continued absence of Finn Russell and Adam Hastings.

France Form

France were magnificent in the 2020 Six Nations but came up short as they finished second behind England on points difference.

Few would argue that France were the best side during the Six Nations competition but the one result that cost them was their defeat at Murrayfield to Scotland.

The French come into the match slightly undercooked after having their match against Fiji called off last week. The Fiji squad had a number of COVID-19 infections but France were handed the victory.

Unfortunately France don’t have a great record at Murrayfield and that could cost them once again.

France Team News

France have no reported injuries so should be at full strength.
