Preview: Sale Sharks vs Worcester Warriors
Friday (20:00)
However they face a Sale side who are extremely good at home and have only once in 2015, with a 2 point defeat to Harlequins.
Worcester also won their first game after promotion to the Aviva Premiership Rugby in 2011, and loosehead Val Rapava Ruskin insists his side cannot consider themselves comfy with life back in the top tier.
"We're not going to stay away from the fact that we've been recently promoted, we've got many younger players in the side and we shouldn't expect to turn up and win every game as we lack a lot of Premiership experience,"
Sale come into this one off a back of a tough game against Saracens where they lost 41-3 and full black Mike Haley is out for revenge.
"Everyone's massively disappointed from the performance at the weekend," he said. "That's not the team we've been all pre-season, the team we've been building towards.
"So we've got back on the horse with some good training sessions and we're building towards Worcester on Friday. We're going to go out and get the win."
