Head of Rugby Johann van Graan has made eight changes to the Bath starting XV for tonight's Premiership match at fourth placed Northampton Saints (1945).

D’Arcy Rae returns to the front row alongside Beno Obano and captain Tom Dunn while Josh Bayliss, Chris Cloete and Miles Reid make up a fresh-looking back row.

Second row Dave Attwood comes back into the pack to partner GJ van Velze who started last time out against Leicester Tigers.

In the backs, Louis Schreuder is selected at scrum-half with Max Ojomoh combining with Jonathan Joseph in the midfield.

Orlando Bailey continues in the 10 jersey and there is a first appearance since November for Gabriel Hamer-Webb who returns to action from a lengthy injury. Matt Gallagher and Tom de Glanville complete the backline.
