Saturday, kick-off 14:30Rugby Park, KilmarnockScotland will be keen to end their November Test campaign with a comprehensive victory over one of rugbys minnows. Complacency hasnt been a trait of Vern Cotters team and they will look to start with the intensity they showed in defeat to Australia and in patches of their victory over Argentina last week.But there is a warning. Georgia will be buoyed having defeated Samoa 20-16 last week in Tbilisi. They are a team fighting for respect in rugby and this will be just their fourth Test against a tier one nation, outside of the World Cup, in 13 years. Scotland follow Ireland (2014), Argentina (2013) and Italy (2003) in hosting the Eastern Europeans.Georgia come into the game brimming with confidence with just one defeat since last years World Cup. They narrowly lost to Japan and during the summer they defeated Tonga, Fiji and Samoa. A big performance is expected to prove that they could belong in an expanded Six Nations.Team newsScotland have largely kept faith with the side that overcame Los Pumas last week, with Huw Jones, missing through injury, replaced by Mark Bennett at centre. Richie Gray returns at lock having missed last weeks game through concussion. The other three changes see Ross Ford come in at hooker and Rob Harley and Ryan Wilson come into the back row.Georgia make just one change with Giorgi Aptsiauri coming in on the wing to replace Giorgi Koshadze while there is one positional switches with Tamaz Mchedlidze moving from the wing to centre.Scotland: Hogg, Maitland, Bennett, Dunbar, Seymour, Russell, Laidlaw; Dell, Ford, Fagerson, R Gray, J Gray, Harley, Watson, Wilson.Replacements: Brown, Allan, Low, Gilchrist, Barclay, Price, Horne, Hughes.Georgia: Kvirikashvili, Aptsiauri, Sharikadze, Mchedllidze, Todua, Malaguradze, Lobzhanidze; Nariashvili, Bregvadze, Chilachava, Mikautadze, Nemsadze, Kolelishvili, Gorgodze, Bitsadze.dddddddddddd.Replacements: Alkhazashvili, Asieshvili, Kubriashvili, Lomidze, Tkhilaishvili, Begadze, Tsiklauri, Sutiashvili.Key head-to-headBoth of Georgias tries last week came courtesy of their pack, which destroyed the Samoan scrum. They will hope that can be a launchpad for another upset in Scotland. Front row Levan Chilachava was immense for Georgia last week and made a 20-metre break which should have resulted in a try.He, and the rest of the Georgia pack will be up against it against a Scottish side led by Lions candidate Jonny Gray. Their win over Argentina was what they needed as preparation for this weekend. It will be a challenge, but one which the Scottish pack should overcome.Key stats*This will be the second time the two sides have met, with Scotland beating Georgia 15-6 at the 2011 Rugby World Cup.*Georgia, who are 12th in the World Rugby rankings, have never beaten tier one opposition, playing 15 Tests and losing them all.Weather It will be cold and cloudy at Rugby Park on Saturday, but the fog should make way for sunshine by kick-off.PredictionScotland should have far too much fire power to down the Georgian minnows. While victories over the Pacific Island teams prove theyre improving, competing with a Southern Hemisphere powerhouse is still some way off. Scotland have built competition in places, and Mark Bennett is one who will be keen to make the most of his opportunity. Only a comprehensive win will be good enough for Scotland to lead into the 2017 Six Nations.Scotland by 25 ' ' '
