WALES v SCOTLAND - 13th February 2010 Last Updated: 10-02-2010

Following their 30-17 defeat to England at Twickenham last Saturday, Wales return home this weekend to face Scotland at the Millennium Stadium.

Second-row Alun-Wyn Jones returns to start against Scotland despite calls for him to be dropped following last week's yellow card for a trip on England's Dylan Hartley. In fact Wales coach, Warren Gatland, makes only two changes to the starting XV with Luke Charteris making way for Osprey Jonathan Thomas and Leigh Halfpenny replacing Cardiff Blues team-mate Tom James.

Wales openside Martyn Williams continues his 13th championship campaign, playing more championship matches than any other player involved in this year's Six Nations. Williams has played 96 Tests, four of them for the Lions. If he plays all of Wales' Six Nations matches this year he will reach his century, matching Scottish opponent Chris Paterson who wins his 100th cap at the weekend.

Determined, dedicated and dogmatic, Martyn Williams is the inspiring number seven lynchpin who has steered club and country to victory in inimitable style, question is, can he do it again...
