Harlequins make only two changes to the side that won away at Saracens last Sunday for tomorrow's clash with Gloucester at the Twickenham Stoop (2.45pm), writes Stephanie Gagne.
In the forwards, England player Nick Easter returns from his Six Nations campaign to replace the injured Tom Guest at number eight, and will join Will Skinner and Chris Robshaw in the back row.
The only other change sees Andy Gomarsall back from two weeks out of action to take a spot on the bench. After impressive displays in the last couple of matches, Danny Care keeps the scrum-half position alongside Adrian Jarvis at fly half.
Director of Rugby Dean Richards said, "We are going into the match with two wins under our belt, and playing with a lot more confidence. The win away at Vicarage Road against Saracens was fantastic."
"The youngsters are all making notable performances and, although all eyes seem to be on Danny Care who is stealing the limelight at the moment, the likes of Will Skinner, James Percival and Tosh Masson, amongst others, have impressed considerably in the last two games. Another bonus this week is Nick Easter, who is back from his Man of the Match display against France last weekend in the RBS Six Nations."
The full team is as follows: 15. Mike Brown 14. Tom Williams 13. Haldane Luscombe 12. Tosh Masson 11. Ugo Monye 10. Adrian Jarvis 9. Danny Care 1. Ceri Jones 2. Tani Fuga 3. Mike Ross 4. James Percival 5. Nicolas Spanghero 6. Chris Robshaw 7. Will Skinner 8. Nick Easter Replacements 16. Chris Brooker 17. John Brooks 18. George Robson 19. Chris Hala'ufia 20. Andy Gomarsall 21. Chris Malone 22. De Wet Barry
