The 20-year-old made a try-scoring debut against London Irish last time out and will be joined in the back three by Duhan van der Merwe, who makes his home debut, and Damien Hoyland.

The front-row is largely unchanged, with Neil Cochrane the only difference. He’ll be alongside Rory Sutherland and Murray McCallum, while Fraser McKenzie and Lewis Carmichael will make up the second-row.

Magnus Bradbury, Jamie Ritchie and Cornell du Preez will start as the back-row three.
