Grindal: Starts at scrum-half

Youngs has been suspended by the Tigers ahead of his scheduled appearance before Rugby Football Union disciplinary chiefs next week.

Elsewhere, wing Alesana Tuilagi, centre Anthony Allen, prop Martin Castrogiovanni and flanker Tom Croft all return to starting duty.

Worcester show two changes from the side that beat relegation-haunted Newcastle at Sixways last time out. Flanker Jake Abbott is sidelined by an ankle injury that forced him off against the Falcons, so Matt Kvesic deputises, while Blair Cowan packs down at number eight.
