Wales make five changes for France match as they search for first Six Nations win

Wales have made five changes to their squad for their Six Nations match against France this weekend.

Wales are yet to win a match in the tournament after losing to Italy and Ireland.

Megan Webb and Caitlin Lewis will make their first Six Nations appearances, while Kayleigh Powell returns from injury.

Georgia Evans and Bethan Lewis will also start for the women in red.

Coach Geraint Lewis said: "Sunday's game is a fantastic opportunity to play against quality opposition at our home.

"A number of our players are in the infancy of their international careers and opportunities like this are invaluable ahead of the World Cup.

"Some girls who've been playing well have missed out on this occasion, but it gives other players the chance to step up to the plate."

Full squad: Kayleigh Powell; Caitlin Lewis, Megan Webb, Kerin Lake, Lisa Neumann; Robyn Wilkins, Keira Bevan; Gwenllian Pyrs, Kelsey Jones, Cerys Hale, Georgia Evans, Gwen Crabb, Alisha Butchers, Bethan Lewis, Siwan Lillicrap.

Replacements: Molly Kelly, Cara Hope, Ruth Lewis, Robyn Lock, Manon Johnes, Ffion Lewis, Courtney Keight, Lauren Smyth.

Wales vs France kicks off on Sunday at 12pm.
