RYAN Lamb will return to the side for the first time in six months as Worcester Warriors look to make it eight consecutive wins when they come up against Greene King IPA Championship rivals Bedford Blues at Sixways tomorrow (7.45pm).
The fly-half is one of eight changes to the starting line-up that comprehensively beat Moseley in the British & Irish Cup a fortnight ago.
Ben Howard returns at full-back, while Tom Biggs and Sam Smith, who have three tries each this season, start on the wing.
The centre partnership that tore Moseley apart remains the same with Ryan Mills and Max Stelling again set to link up, while Charlie Mulchrone starts at scrum-half.
Hooker Dan George lines up in the front-row with young props Val Rapava Ruskin and Mike Daniels.
Mike Williams returns to action after injury but comes into the second-row alongside Darren O'Shea and GJ van Velze is back to skipper the side in a strong back-row that includes Matt Cox and Mat Gilbert.
Hooker Ben Sowrey is on the bench and could be set for his first Warriors league appearance.
Warriors: Howard; Smith, Stelling, Mills, Biggs; Lamb, Mulchrone; Ruskin, George, Daniels, Williams, O'Shea, Cox, Gilbert, van Velze. Replacements: Sowrey, Bower, Rees, Percival, Arr, Mieres, Symons.
