An all-new front-row sees the replacements from last weekend’s defeat at Cardiff Rugby promoted to the starting line-up, meaning Oli Kebble and Murphy Walker pack down either side of hooker Johnny Matthews, while Rob Harley returns in the second row.

The Warriors, who have dropped down into the Challenge Cup, also recall scrum-half Jamie Dobie, centre Stafford McDowall and full-back Domingo Miotti.

In the evening’s other URC match, Josh Lewis will make his 50th appearance for Dragons when the Gwent region tackle Cell C Sharks in Durban, South Africa.

Lewis is named at fly-half as boss Dean Ryan, whose side lie bottom of Pool B in the Challenge Cup with one game to come against Gloucester Rugby on April 9, makes nine changes to the line-up who lost at Vodacom Bulls last weekend.

Scrum-half Rhodri Williams joins Lewis at half-back, while the back line also sees call-ups for wing Jordan Olowofela and full-back Ioan Davies.

Wales internationals Ross Moriarty, Will Rowlands and Leon Brown all return in the pack, where prop Greg Bateman and lock Joe Davies are also included.

Meanwhile in the Gallagher Premiership, Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall makes three changes to the side who beat Bristol Bears last Saturday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with two coming up front and one in the backs.

In the pack Eroni Mawi returns at loosehead prop and Tim Swinson in the second row, while in the backs Sean Maitland is recalled to the right wing.

Saracens are currently placed third in Pool C, with a Round 5 tie at CA Brive on April 8 left to complete their pool schedule.

With the EPCR Challenge Cup Round of 16 fast approaching, Glasgow Warriors head coach Danny Wilson makes seven changes for his side’s final regular-season home match in the United Rugby Championship, against Zebre Parma on Friday night.
