WALES will play Scotland for seventh place in the World Rugby U20 Championship at Manchester City Academy Stadium on Saturday (kick-off 4.30pm).
The Six Nations champions will be desperate to put in a good display against the Scots after their 71-12 hammering at the hands of New Zealand this afternoon.
Scotland, who Wales beat 18-15 in February thanks to Billy McBryde’s last-gasp penalty on their way to a Grand Slam, were beaten 35-19 by Australia.
Jason Strange’s side will now play at the secondary venue while the big games take place at AJ Bell Stadium in Salford with hosts England locking horns with Ireland for the title.
