Both are part of Gregor Townsend’s squad for the fixture between two sides who are out of the running to win the tournament.

Ritchie, from Strathkinnes, was named as one of the Scots’ vice captains for a warm up game last week against Georgia which Townsend’s men won 48-7.

Fellow former Howe of Fife man Horne, from Cupar, made an appearance as a second half replacement, coming on after 65 minutes.
