Scotland have made five changes to the side who were overwhelmed by England for their Women’s Six Nations trip to face Italy on Saturday.
Prop Demi Swan will make her first start, having appeared from the bench in the opening win in Wales and the defeat by England, and Eva Donaldson and Rachel McLachlan are also included in an overhauled back row.
Outside centre Lucia Scott and wing Francesca McGhie are also recalled among the backs, with the former making her first international start and the latter in the XV under head coach Sione Fukofuka for the first time after injury.
Rhona Lloyd and Emily Coubrough will not be involved in Parma because of concussion protocols, while Evie Wills has an arm problem.
