Fabien Galthie has resisted the urge to make sweeping changes to his side after last week's Guinness Six Nations defeat to Ireland.
The France coach has made just two alterations to his starting XV for Saturday's trip to Scotland, with Cameron Woki and Louis Bielle-Biarry returning to the first team.
Woki joins Paul Gabrillagues in the second row, replacing the suspended Paul Willemse. Willemse has been banned for the next two games, following his red card last week against Ireland.
The only other change sees Bielle-Biarry reinstated to the left wing, with Yoram Moefana dropping back to the bench.
The half-back pairing of Maxime Lucu and Matthieu Jalibert are given another opportunity against the Scots, despite struggling to make an impact in the defeat to Ireland.
Jonathan Danty and Gael Fickou continue their usual centre partnership, while Damian Penaud is on the right wing with kicker Thomas Ramos marshalling the backfield at full-back.
Up front, Peato Mauvaka starts at hooker, with Cyril Baille and Uini Atonio at prop.
La Rochelle's Greg Alldritt continues at number 8 where he captains the side, flanked by Francois Cros and Charles Ollivon.
Toulouse back row Alexandre Roumat is in line to make a debut off the bench, with Galthie going for a 6:2 split among the replacements.
Meanwhile Scotland have made three changes from the side that started last week's 27-26 win against Wales.
All three changes come in the pack, with Grant Gilchrist (above) returning from suspension to start in the second row, replacing the injured Richie Gray at lock.
The other two changes are in the back row. Co-captain Rory Darge returns from injury to start ahead of Jamie Ritchie at blindside flanker, while Luke Crosbie's injury sees Matt Fagerson switch to the blindside, and Jack Dempsey come into the team at number 8.
Andy Christie comes onto the bench, with the Saracens man preferred to Ritchie, while former Munster out-half Ben Healy is also included among the replacements.
