Director of Rugby Mike Ruddock has named the same starting line-up that recorded a 19-13 victory over Plymouth Albion last Saturday.
"We have selected a very strong team for the first game of the campaign at Sixways," said Ruddock.
"Clive Griffiths, Billy McGinty and myself have been really pleased with the way the players have worked on their skills and conditioning during the summer.
"Hopefully we can transfer the good work from training to a game situation against a very good outfit."
