Gregor Townsend has called Ross McCann, Ali Price and Cameron Redpath into his Scotland squad that are in Spain currently preparing to take England on at Twickenham’s Allianz Stadium this Saturday in round three of the Guinness Six Nations.
Scrum-half Ali Price has replaced George Horne in the squad, who suffered a facial injury in Glasgow Warriors’ victory over Dragons on Sunday, and is yet to join the squad in Spain.
Edinburgh centre Matt Currie was another casualty over the weekend, suffering a concussion in the loss to Zebre on Friday. Redpath will provide cover in the midfield this week in Scotland’s preparation for the Calcutta Cup.
The final change to the squad is not a like-for-like replacement as winger Ross McCann has come in to replace Soyaux Angoulême No.8 Alexander Masibaka.

Both Finn Russell and Darcy Graham have remained with the squad after both suffering head injuries in an accidental collision in their last match. Scotland confirmed that the pair have been progressing through their concussion protocols.
Scotland will be looking to bounce back from a comprehensive loss to Ireland in Edinburgh in round two. England, meanwhile, will arrive at their HQ buoyed by a dramatic victory over France.
