PARIS (Reuters) – - Scotland will be looking to disrupt France’s bid to claim the Six Nations on Saturday with co-captain Finn Russell admitting it felt odd to have rivals England and Ireland rooting for their success.

Scotland take on the table-toppers at the Stade de France on Saturday and a rare away win in Paris could open the door for either England or Ireland to secure tournament success, depending on their results against Wales and Italy respectively earlier in the day.
