London Scottish have named their side to face Nottingham on Sunday at Lady Bay, as seventh plays sixth in the Greene King IPA Championship.
The Scots are on a five match winning run in all competitions and could move above Nottingham on Sunday with a win that would take them in to the top six.
Oli and Alex Grove start together for the first time in professional rugby, the brothers played against each other last season but will feature alongside each other at Lady Bay.
The starting line-up features nine changes from the team that beat Cornish Pirates in their last match a fortnight ago, the majority are in the forwards with the relatively settled back-line looking to fire once again.
James Hallam, Tyrone Moran and Matt Shields start in the front-row, with Will Carrick Smith and Josh Thomas Brown behind in the second-row.
Rory Bartle moves to the back-row, and will start alongside Tinus du Plessis and captain Freddie Clarke.
The back-line sees a new half-back pairing of George Horne and Oli Grove, with Robbie Fergusson and Alex Grove in the centre once again.
It is an unchanged back-three that will start at Lady Bay, with Jason Harries and Howard Packman on the wings and January’s Player of the Month Peter Lydon at full-back.
Adam Kwasnicki, Jack Cosgrove and Max Maidment will offer another front-row option from the bench, with Chris Walker and Mark Bright covering the back-row.
Matt Heeks is also on the bench, alongside Worcester Warriors winger Sam Smith, who joined on loan for the rest of the season last week and will be looking to make his first appearance for the Scots.
