Fa'asavalu: Back for Harlequins

Quins make the long trip north to Manchester with coach Conor O'Shea able to integrate some returning World Cup players back into the fold.

Ross Chisholm returns from injury on the wing.

Joe Gray returns at hooker while flanker Fa'asavalu returns for the first time this season.

Joe Trayfoot will start at number eight in place of Chris York, who faces up to four weeks on the side lines with an ankle injury sustained against London Irish.

The bench sees Nic Mayhew, another close season recruit, return from injury in the front row, where he will be looking to make his debut in place of Mark Lambert, who came off injured against Irish.

Tomas Vallejos is back from the Rugby World Cup, having made his Argentina debut in the tournament.

Meanwhile, Mark Cueto makes his Sale Sharks comeback on Friday.
