Geoff Parling has named his side to travel to Northampton Saints in the Gallagher PREM play-offs on Friday evening (kick-off 7:45pm).
Freddie Steward and Billy Searle both return from injury to feature in the starting lineup for the Derby Day clash, replacing George Pearson and James O’Connor.
Searle hasn’t featured since our away game against Saracens at the end of April, while Steward has missed the past two Gallagher PREM fixtures having suffered a thumb injury against Sale Sharks.
Ollie Hassell-Collins comes back into the lineup for Gabriel Hamer-Webb as the only other change to the backs.
In the forward pack, George Martin and Joaquin Moro start, with Cameron Henderson and Olly Cracknell dropping to the bench.
Geoff Parling said, "Friday evening is another great opportunity to showcase the best of our game, and we know that the ability to stay calm and clear whilst enjoying the occasion will be key."
