Ireland coach Scott Bemand has named two uncapped players in his matchday squad for their Women's Six Nations finale away to Scotland on Saturday, but Aoife Wafer misses out through injury.

Munster's Aoife Corey will make her debut at full-back in Edinburgh as she takes the place of Stacey Flood who drops to the bench.

In the only other change to the backline from the win away to Wales last weekend, Vicky Elmes Kinlan is promoted from the replacements and will make her first Six Nations start on the wing in place of Anna McGann.

Loose-head prop Niamh O'Dowd is fit again and will return to the number one jersey, joining Neve Jones and Linda Djougang in the front row.

With number eight Wafer missing out through a knee injury sustained at Rodney Parade last week, Fiona Tuite comes into the second row alongside Ruth Campbell with Dorothy Wall moving back to blind-side flanker.

Brittany Hogan switches from the six jersey to number eight, with captain Edel McMahon again lining out at open-side flanker.

Munster lock Jane Clohessy, the daughter of former Ireland international prop Peter Clohessy, is named among the replacements and will make her debut if called upon.

Scotland have welcomed back captain Rachel Malcolm and scrum-half Leia Brebner-Holden to their side.

Ireland are seeking a third away win of the campaign after already beating Italy and Wales on the road.

Ireland: Corey; Elmes Kinlan, Dalton, Breen, Costigan; O'Brien, Scuffil-McCabe; O'Dowd, Jones, Djougang, Campbell, Tuite, Wall, McMahon (capt), Hogan.

Replacements: Moloney, McGrath, Haney, Clohessy, Boles, Lane, Higgins, Flood.
