Just day two of the Women's Rugby World Cup, but Scotland’s meeting with Wales on Saturday afternoon is one of the tournament's most important games.

Canada are likely to win Group B, meaning the Celtic clash in Salford may effectively represent a knockout less than 24 hours after the tournament kicks off. The stakes are high, as is motivation for Scotland on multiple fronts.
