France can wrap up the Six Nations title with a victory over Scotland as the championship reaches its denouement. Their Dublin dismantling of Ireland has left Fabien Galthie’s men on the verge of triumph even after the brutal injury blow sustained by captain Antoine Dupont in that encounter.

Gregor Brown will make his first Six Nations start for Scotland after the Glasgow lock was included for their tournament finale at leaders France on Saturday. Scotland, who've never finished higher than third in the Six Nations era -- their last title came in the final edition of the old Five Nations in 1999 -- are currently fourth and effectively out of championship contention once again.

France have brought in centre Gael Fickou and scrumhalf Maxime Lucu for the injured Antoine Dupont in two changes from the team that crushed Ireland in the lineup named on Thursday to face Scotland in Saturday's Six Nations finale at Stade de France.
