Bath Rugby Name Team to Face Northampton Saints

Bath Rugby has named their team to face Northampton Saints in Round 14 of the Aviva Premiership tomorrow night at the Rec, kick-off 19:45.

James Wilson starts against his former side at fullback, and will be joined in the back three by Matt Banahan and Aled Brew.

Will Hurrell continues at outside centre after making his debut last Friday against Ospreys, with Ben Tapuai joining him in the midfield. Freddie Burns and Kahn Fotuali’i start at fly-half and scrum-half respectively, as Bath look to make it four wins on the bounce in all competitions.

Lucas Noguera, Tom Dunn and Max Lahiff make up the front row combination, whilst Elliott Stooke and Charlie Ewels form the second row partnership.

Matt Garvey captains the team from blindside flanker, with Paul Grant at openside and James Phillips continuing at number eight.
