Marcus Smith is set to pull the strings from fly-half with Lucas Friday making his first start in Europe's premier club competition.
In the pack, Jason Gilmore has made three changes, all of which come in the front row. Following his return to action last week, Simon Kerrod starts at loosehead, Jack Walker is selected at hooker with Pedro Delgado at tighthead.
Guido Petti Pagadizábal and Kieran Treadwell start in the engine room, with Chandler Cunningham-South, Jack Kenningham and skipper Alex Dombrandt continuing their back row duties.
The Quarters have opted for a 6-2 split on the bench, which sees George Turner cover hooker and the roles of Will Hobson and Harry Williams switch to impact players.
Following his Gallagher PREM debut, Elliot Williams is set for his european bow in front of a home crowd. Elsewhere, Zach Carr and Tom Lawday provide further cover in the pack.
Max Green and Jarrod Evans complete the matchday 23 to take on the DHL Stormers.
