Lloyd at 10 as Cardiff aim to build on home comforts

Wales squad returnee Callum Sheedy drops to the bench amid six starting changes for the hosts with Johan Mulder back to start at scrum-half. Another Wales call-up, Jacob Beetham, switches from wing to full-back after Cameron Winnett was ruled out with a groin injury, with Van Zyl resisting the temptation to bring in veteran Leigh Halfpenny to plug the gap. Danny Southworth can celebrate his Wales call up for their autumn Tests at loose-head, with Scotland's Javan Sebastian hoping to impress on the other side of the scrum against the side he left in the summer to join Cardiff. The other Cardiff change sees Taine Basham take over from Dan Thomas at open-side flanker to make up an all-Wales back row alongside Alex Mann and Taulupe Faletau. Sheedy and Aled Davies are Cardiff's only backs replacements on a 6-2 bench split. Edinburgh are without injured Scotland wings Duhan van der Merwe and Darcy Graham, but recall lock Marshall Sykes in a team led by flanker Magnus Bradbury, who Gregor Townsend has brought in from the international wilderness for Scotland's autumn campaign.
