Sam Burgess will start at blindside for Bath on Friday evening against London Irish.

Burgess started his first Aviva Premiership in the back-row in the last round when Bath won 29-19 at Newcastle and he has kept his space in the side when they welcome the Exiles to the Recreation Ground on Friday evening.

He lines up alongside Francois Louw and Leroy Houston in Bath's back-row with England international Dave Attwood named on the bench. Kyle Eastmond is recalled at inside centre alongside Jonathan Joseph with Ollie Devoto included among the replacements.

London Irish have made one change for Friday night's game with Jebb Sinclair shifting into the second-row alongside George Skivington with Luke Narraway starting at blindside.
