Twelve changes have been made to the starting line-up from the team which won the Amlin Challenge Cup quarter final at Sale just over a week ago, with significant returnees including fly half Stephen Myler and number eight Samu Manoa, who returns to the team after helping the USA win their back-to-back play-offs with Uruguay to qualify for Rugby World Cup 2015.
Ben Foden, Lee Dickson and Ross McMillan are the three who retain their places after the AJ Bell Stadium success.
Tickets for Sunday’s game are still available directly from Saracens, with the game also being broadcast live on BT Sport 2 from 1pm. Live text commentary will be available on your computer, tablet or mobile at www.saintslive.co.uk
And you can hear the thoughts of George North, Calum Clark, Salesi Ma’afu and defence coach Alan Dickens in this week’s official Saints podcast, available to stream or download for free onto any device at www.soundcloud.com/official-saints-rugby
