In the back row, Ruan Ackermann, Zach Mercer and captain, Lewis Ludlow, complete their second successive fixture together.

Adam Hastings made his return from injury last time out against Northampton Saints, he starts outside half-back partner, Stephen Varney again, with Seb Atkinson coming into midfield alongside Chris Harris outside them.
