The Sixways director of rugby brings Gavin Quinnell in at blindside with Drew Hickey returning at Number 8. The pack shuffle sees captain Pat Sanderson moving to openside, while Tom Harding and Kai Horstmann make way - the latter taking a place on the bench, having figured in every Warriors match this season.
In the backs, Ryan Powell starts at scrum-half, Gary Trueman completes a return to fitness after a double hernia op, at inside centre, and Shane Drahm is at full-back. The selection means there are places among the replacements for Matt Powell, Thomas Lombard and Thinus Delport.
