Guirado could miss the clash in Cardiff on Saturday with a right knee injury. He was replaced in the 66th minute by Adrien Pelissie in the 22-16 victory over England at the Stade de France on Saturday.

Arthur Iturria meanwhile became the first of eight players dropped for a night out in Edinburgh to return to the French squad.

Iturria replaces another second row, Romain Taofifenua, who injured a thigh in training on Thursday, missed the game against England and will not be fit to face the Welsh.

Iturria, a 23-year-old Clermont player was dropped following a late night out immediately after France lost in Scotland on February 11.
