Worcester Warriors will be keen to avoid a fourth consecutive defeat in the Aviva Premiership on Saturday when they welcome Exeter Chiefs to Sixways Stadium.
Richard Hill's side have embarked on a disappointing run in recent weeks, leaving them in ninth place in the table.
In contrast, eighth-placed Exeter have seen an upturn in their fortunes over the past fortnight with two wins on the bounce.
Semisi Taulava and Chris Jones return for the hosts, who also bring back Euan Murray, Josh Matavesi and Jonny Arr.
James Scaysbrook is welcomed back for the visitors in place of Ben White.
