France have made two changes for Sunday's Guinness Six Nations match against Scotland in Edinburgh.

Hooker Camille Chat was injured in the win over Wales, but is fit enough to be among the substitutes at Murrayfield.

France are the only side still with a chance of winning the Grand Slam after victories over England, Italy and Wales.

Scotland's only win came against Italy after opening defeats by Ireland and England.
