Captain Will Skinner also returns to lead the Quins side after missing the Guinness Premiership victory at Bath last weekend with a stomach bug. He will once again join the formidable Quins back row with Chris Robshaw and Nick Easter.

The only other change to the side that beat Bath is in the centres, with Jordan Turner-Hall once again partnering Gonzalo Tiesi.
