Edinburgh arrive in Italy with new faces ready to make an impact. Summer signings Piers O’Conor, from Connacht, and James Whitcombe, from Leicester Tigers, are both set for their Edinburgh debuts in Parma. Their addition strengthens a side that has been building depth through the offseason and will be eyeing an important opening-round victory on the road.
Edinburgh head coach Sean Everitt said his squad is well aware of the challenge. “It’s brilliant to be back in action after a long block of work in pre-season,” Everitt said. “The BKT United Rugby Championship is a great league, and we can’t wait to kick off our campaign in Parma on Saturday afternoon. Last time we came to northern Italy it took a last-minute kick to earn a draw, so we’re well aware of the threat Zebre can pose. It’s going to take a relentless 80-minute performance at Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi.”
