The Scotland trio replace Mike Coman, Wicus Blaauw and Sam Beard respectively. Jack Cuthbert also returns to the side in place of Dougie Fife, who will miss the rest of the season with a broken hand.

Head coach Alan Solomons said: “As we are improving, our form on the road has been better, but I do feel that if we have a good performance we are capable of getting a result.
