Chudley returns to the fold at scrum-half in an otherwise unchanged backline. Rhys Priestland partners Chudley in the half-back pairing, with Jamie Roberts and Max Wright lining up in the midfield.

Aled Brew and Semesa Rokoduguni start on the wings, with Freddie Burns continuing at full-back.

Obano and Dunn return to the front row, with Will Stuart at tighthead. McNally starts at lock alongside captain Charlie Ewels, while Tom Ellis takes his place at blindside flanker. Zach Mercer, a try scorer last weekend continues at number eight, with Josh Bayliss completing the back row.

Jackson Willison could make his return to action after being named among the replacements to face Chris Boyd’s side, who are unbeaten in their opening three games of the Gallagher Premiership.
