Friday’s weekend kick-starter sees Bath travel to Worcester. Lucas Noguera Paz is on the bench this week for the visitors while Joe Taufete’e has returned from a week back home to take up a reserve spot for the home team.

Mariano Galarza will make his first Premiership appearance of the season as he starts in the Gloucester second row at Northampton on Saturday. Meanwhile AJ MacGinty continues in the No 10 shirt for Sale when they host Harlequins.

Sunday will see Evan Olmstead and Juan Pablo Socino on bench duty for Newcastle when they host the Premiership’s top team Exeter Chiefs at Kingston Park. Saracens are off to Coventry to play Wasps with Chris Wyles on the left wing and Juan Figallo tabbed for second half prop duty.
