Brendan Mckibbin and Chris Noakes are named at scrum half and fly half respectively with Johnny Williams and Canadian international Ciaran Hearn in the midfield. Aseli Tikoirotuma, Alex Lewington and Sean Maitland make up the back three.
Gerard Ellis and Topsy Ojo are named among the replacements after missing the match against Northampton on Boxing Day.
