Matches: Worcester Warriors 23 - 30 Harlequins

Tournaments/Tours: Guinness Premiership

Teams: Harlequins | Worcester Warriors

Harlequins have made only one change to the starting line up that played at home last weekend against London Irish, for their clash with Worcester Warriors at Sixways Stadium.

The only change to the starting line up appears in the forwards, where Chris Robshaw comes back in at blindside flanker, to replace the injured Nick Easter. Charlie Amesbury comes on to the bench to replace the injured Tom Williams, where he joins Phil Davies, who makes his first appearance this season.

Young wing Charlie Fellows will make the first Premiership start of his career after being named in the Warriors' line-up.

Fellows, a product of the thriving Academy system at Warriors, has already impressed off the bench this season and is now handed his chance with Chris Pennell ruled out with a groin injury. Flanker James Collins is also ruled out through injury and so Kai Horstmann, Tom Wood and Netani Talei will make up the back row.

Director of Rugby Mike Ruddock also makes changes at half back with Matthew Jones handed a starting spot and Matt Powell coming onto the replacements bench. "Charlie Fellows who is a fine young prospect who came on against Leicester and did really well," said Ruddock.

"He deserves his chance because he has been quite outstanding with our A team and has really put the yard work in. He has even been talked about for the England Sevens. If you remember this time last year we were talking about putting young Miles Benjamin in at only 19 and look what he did. I'm never afraid to blood youngsters if that is what we have got to do. Over the next two or three years the club will be stronger for the youngsters coming through."

Warriors remain without the services of skipper Pat Sanderson (quad), Rico Gear (Achillies), Marcel Garvey (hip) and Hal Luscombe (knee).
