In the pack, Eric Fry and Rob Hawkins line up alongside Italian prop Lorenzo Romano who has been training at the club in recent weeks, while the second row sees Scott Macleod and Josh Furno provide go forward and line out options.
A back row of Sebastian Ferreira, Andy Saull and Chris York completes the starting XV with Saull also returning to the captains arm band.
A youthful bench features Joe Wafer, Adam Brocklebank and Mark Irving as the front row cover while Harry Snowdon and Brian Tuilagi provide the second and back row cover.
Dan Taylor, Phil Godman and Brett Connon complete the replacements.
