Scrum-half Leia Brebner-Holden is off for what looks to be a HIA. Caity Mattinson is on.

I thought Chloe Rollie had taken the wrong option by ignoring Rhona Lloyd free on the outside and stepping back into traffic, but the footwork and power to get to the tryline was superb.

Great start for Scotland.

It was so nearly the perfect response by Italy, Aura Muzzo is in loads of space but drops a poor pass at her feet. That was a big chance.

After a chat with her captain, Helen Nelson pops a penalty deep into Italy's 22. A sign of intent from Scotland.

It's these little errors, like this knock-on, that are going to affect Italy today.

Full-back Vittoria Ostuni Minuzzi is given some space to attack but Scotland deal well with her. Ostuni Minuzzi is the definition of box office, keep an eye on her today.

A sliced kick from Helen Nelson sums up the early exchanges, Scotland just can't get going in attack. Italy then spill the ball to add to the first-half errors.

Not much to report....

Italy are putting good pressure on. This Italian team are coming together.

Italy look bang up for this one, but Scotland's defence holds firm. Evie Gallagher with the steal just as the visitors were looking to get into the hosts' 22.

It is a lively start from Scotland as they go through some phases. However, they send boot to ball after being driven backwards on multiple occasions.

We are under way at a loud Hive Stadium.

Scotland are favourites today against Italy, not least because they have beaten the Italians in their last three meetings.

Bryan Easson's side are no longer happy to play the role of plucky underdog, and today is a chance to show they are able to handle the pressure that comes with expectation.

It's been a tough Six Nations so far for Italy with heavy defeats to England and Ireland, and Scotland will want a fast start to plant more seeds of doubt in Italian minds.

Bristol Bears centre Emma Orr has scored a try in both of Scotland's games so far this Six Nations.

The 22-year-old has quickly established herself as one of Scotland's best attackers through her powerful running lines and sharp footwork.

Her relationship with centre partner Lisa Thomson has been vital to everything good about Bryan Easson's side in attack.

If you need reminding of the tries then watch below.

Emma Orr and Chloe Rollie both scored and start today.

A win for Scotland would jump them up to third. For Italy, victory would help drag them off bottom spot.

France overcame a resilient Scotland with an impressive second-half performance to secure an impressive victory in La Rochelle.

Bryan Easson's side, who finished fourth in last year's Six Nations, defeated Wales in their opening game.
