Bisegni returns in only Italy change
Conor O’Shea has made just one change to his starting XV for Italy’s trip to Wales in the Six Nations, with Giulio Bisegni coming in.
Giulio Bisegni has earned an international recall in Italy’s solitary change for Sunday’s Six Nations contest against Wales.
The Zebre back last featured for his country in last year’s Six Nations against England where he played on the wing.
But Bisegni will start at outside centre in Cardiff this weekend with Tommaso Boni ruled through injury.
Back-rower Giovanni Licata, yet to make his Six Nations debut, is brought into the replacements, with Oliviero Fabiani and Guglielmo Palazzani also added to the bench.
