Franklin’s Gardens has been sold out for weeks in anticipation of the re-match of the 2011 Heineken Cup final, and the Saints coaches have made four changes to the team which beat Worcester in the Aviva Premiership last time out.
James Wilson returns to the side at full back, with George North coming onto the wing after the completion of his commitments with Wales. Up front Courtney Lawes partners Samu Manoa in the second row with Phil Dowson coming in on the flank.
Tomorrow’s game may be full, but there are still plenty of ways for you to follow the action, including live on Sky Sports and on BBC Radio Northampton. And wherever you are you can follow all the live Opta stats as they happen at www.saintslive.co.uk

All supporters are reminded that there will be NO ticket reprints on match day. Season Ticket Holders who forget or mislay their Season Card will NOT be issued a paper ticket in lieu; instead they will be issued with a new card and incur a £10 re-issue fee.
