Will Flinn comes into the side at scrum-half, whilst Aled Brew will hope to make his comeback from injury in the second West Country derby in two weeks for the United side.

Up front, Australian international Nathan Charles is joined in the front row by Will Vaughan and Sam Nixon, with Jack Davies and Levi Douglas continuing in the second row.

Zach Mercer will captain the team for the third successive game, in a back row which once again includes Josh Bayliss and Chris Barry.

Flinn will partner Josh Lewis in the half-back combination, with Robbie de Bruyn lining up in the midfield alongside the experienced Jack Wilson.

Brew slots in on the left wing, with Levi Davis and Darren Atkins completing a dangerous back three for the trip to Weston.
