Kevin Morgan comes in at fullback for the injured Martyn Thomas and Ben Daly is selected at hooker as Steve Jones moves to the bench.
Andrew Hall will play in the second row for Adam Jones, due to illness, and Richard Parks returns from injury with Michael Owen moving to the replacements bench.
Head Coach Paul Turner said, “We assessed the squad after last weekend and the changes made are due to both combination and form.
