Scotland number eight Josh Strauss has done very well, he provides a target and he has really made an impact in these last two games. He’s hard to get down, and he has a really smart rugby brain.

Stuart Hogg
Injured Scotland full-back on BBC One
Scotland full-back Stuart Hogg reckons his team-mates need to get on top of the youthful French backline early on.
"We can't let these guys get into the game. We have to get stuck into them and make their day hell."

BBC Sport Scotland at Stade de France
Speaking to Scotland fans in Paris over the last couple of days, the mood among them could be described as cautiously optimistic.
Most of them believe with a full-strength team Scotland would be coming here as favourites. The injuries that have robbed them of Stuart Hogg, Finn Russell et al has curtailed that confidence somewhat.
It’s a glorious sunny day in the French capital, much as it was on that famous day in 1999 when Scotland last won here. The perfect setting for running rugby.

Former France international on BBC One
It’s always a dream and an honour to play here, but we need to deliver much more than we have done. The first half against Wales at the start of the tournament was good, but since then it hasn’t been. We need to change a lot if we expect to win today.
France v Scotland (14:15)
In a distinguished 58-cap career, former Scotland prop Al Dickinson took on France five times, winning just once, in 2016.
He's backing Scotland to get the job done today and end their 20-year wait for victory in Paris.

Injured Scotland international Stuart Hogg said: "There is a nervous energy today and I'm very much looking forward to this game."
On his shoulder injury: "It's just unfortunate that I have picked up another injury but I'm used to it now and I have just got to get on with it. We felt we were in a good place going into the Ireland game, but a few bits and pieces in our game let us down."

There's an almighty physical mismatch in the midfield today.
France colossus Mathieu Bastareaud is 6ft and 123kg - heavier than any of the Scottish forwards, even tight-head prop Simon Berghan!
Opposite him is 5ft 9in, 89kg Nick Grigg, the New Zealand-born buzzball.
Grigg is a hugely explosive runner and will fancy his chances of doing Bastareaud for pace if he can blast up the outside.
In a one-on-one physical tussle, though...

Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend on BBC Radio Scotland: "The way the team has played over the last couple of seasons, the work rate I've seen with the players - their ambition, their skill - they're in a very good place to go and win in France because you've got to take the game to the opposition.
"You've got to outwork the opposition and you've got to be brave. I believe this squad can do that today. The team is strong. It's obviously not the players that have played every game the last few years, but it's players that have been knocking on the door and today is their opportunity to show what they can do in a blue jersey."

Scotland have won their last two Six Nations home games against France, in 2016 and 2018, but it's been 20 long years since they were victorious in Paris, in their final game of the old Five Nations.
They've suffered 10 defeats in the French capital since then, including a World Cup warm-up Test in 2015 when, presented with an opportunity to kick a match-levelling penalty in the final minute, they opted to go for a match-winning try instead and came up short. Plus ca change...
Their last three Six Nations visits to the Stade de France have ended in defeats of seven points or less. Could this be the year, despite all the injuries, that they put their Paris hoodoo to bed?
Let's remind ourselves of that last, glorious, occasion when Scottish fans really could party in Paris like it - was - 1999.

So, without Russell, their play-maker-in-chief, Scotland field Peter Horne at 10. He's only played eight of his 39 Tests in the pivot position and six of those came off the bench.
Blair Kinghorn scored a hat-trick in the opening-round trouncing of Italy and replaces Hogg at full-back.
And with Jones ruled out, the pocket dynamo Nick Grigg is picked at outside centre.
Fit-again Magnus Bradbury starts on the blind-side flank in place of Wilson having made a brilliant injury comeback for Edinbrugh against Dragons.
Despite the injuries, it's a strong Scottish team...

Scotland began the championship with an injury list of 20 - among them, their captain John Barclay, Hamish Watson, Duncan Taylor and Mark Bennett.
Two rounds into the tournament and they've been depleted yet further.
Stuart Hogg, Huw Jones, Finn Russell, Ryan Wilson, WP Nel, Sam Skinner - all sidelined for the trip to Paris.

Brunel has selected a much more encouraging and youthful backline this weekend.
Thomas Ramos, the 23-year-old Toulouse full-back, makes his first start.
Gael Fickou and Yoann Huget return to their preferred positions of centre and wing respectively.
Romain Ntamack is just 19 and plays at fly-half despite making only three appearances at 10 for Toulouse this season.
Twenty-two-year-old Antoine Dupont is a riveting prospect at scrum-half and finally ousts Morgan Parra from the number nine jersey.
Despite playing only 34 minutes off the bench against England, Dupont made five clean breaks - a tally only two Frenchmen have bettered in a championship Test.
Can the young guns spark a revival?

France v Scotland (14:15)
France coach Jacques Brunel has what we'll diplomatically refer to as a creative selection policy...
He's been picking centres on the wings, a wing at full-back and leaving his form scrum-half on the bench recently.
France have only won three of the 10 Tests since he took charge and suffered a humiliating record Six Nations defeat by England in the previous round.
There's been talk of mutiny in the ranks this week. Morgan Parra and Camille Lopez appeared to publicly criticise Brunel and an unnamed player referred to "chaos" on the field at Twickenham.
Parra and Lopez have been dropped from the match-day squad altogether today - Brunel insists the call is a "sporting decision".

We're wishing the inimitable former Scotland lock Doddie Weir a speedy recovery after doing himself a mischief last week.
I'm sure he'll be following the action from the comfort of his sofa today.

France v Scotland (14:15 KO)
Victory today could keep Scotland in the title shake-up, with Wales at home in a fortnight and a final-round trip to face England at Twickenham.
Defeat would leave Gregor Townsend's men with an uphill battle to match last year's third-place finish.
A third French defeat - and fourth in a row in the Championship - would leave Les Bleus staring at a likely Wooden Spoon decider with Italy on the final day. The French, remember, have only finished in the top half of the Championship once in the last seven years.
