Wasps’ international quartet of Dan Robson, Will Rowlands, Jack Willis and club-captain Joe Launchbury return to the starting line-up.

Charlie Atkinson starts at fly-half for his European debut, with Jacob Umaga side-lined with a knock picked up against the Falcons.

There are also Wasps European debuts for Alfie Barbeary at number eight and Paolo Odogwu at outside centre.

There is an all-new front row with Tom West, Tom Cruse and Kieran Brookes packing down against Dragons.

Wasps: Lima Sopoaga, Zach Kibirige, Paolo Odogwu, Jimmy Gopperth, Josh Bassett, Charlie Atkinson, Dan Robson; Tom West, Tom Cruse, Kieran Brookes, Joe Launchbury, Will Rowlands, Jack Willis, Thomas Young, Alfie Barbeary
