Scotland may have fallen short of winning the Triple Crown following last weekend's defeat to Ireland, but Gregor Townsend men will want to finish their Guinness Six Nations campaign on a high with victory over the Azzurri in Edinburgh on Saturday (March 18).
The Italians last visit to the Scottish capital ended in a 52-10 defeat. Last year’s match, in Rome, also went the way of the Scots with Townsend’s troops winning 33-22.
For those not lucky enough to have tickets for big match, which kicks off at 12.30pm, we’ve compiled a list of the 15 best Edinburgh pubs to watch the action unfold.
