How to watch Scotland vs Portugal: TV channel and live stream for rugby today

Scotland will be looking to put on a show as they host Portugal at Murrayfield this afternoon.

Gregor Townsend’s impressed in defeat to South Africa last weekend, fighting back to get within four points of the world champions before the Springboks pulled away in the closing stages.

A very different match is expected today, with this Portugal’s first international away at a top-tier nation, and Townsend has made 14 changes to the side that started against South Africa.

Portugal impressed in flashes at the World Cup last year, drawing with Georgia before narrowly beating Fiji to bring their campaign to a close in memorable fashion.

However, even with all the changes, Scotland are expected to return to winning ways before Australia visit next weekend.
