Northampton Saints v Vodacom Bulls: Full team news for Sunday's game
Ollie Sleightholme is fit to return for Saints when they host Vodacom Bulls on Sunday (kick-off 3.15pm).
The England ace has overcome an ankle issue to start in place of the suspended James Ramm in the Investec Champions Cup clash at cinch Stadium at Franklin's Gardens.
Sleightholme's availability is welcome news for Saints, who are shorn of so many wing options, with Tommy Freeman, Tom Litchfield and Will Glister injured and Ramm and Edoardo Todaro banned.
The only other change to the team that won 35-27 at Section Paloise last Sunday comes at No.8 as Henry Pollock replaces the rotated Callum Chick.
Chunya Munga is back from concussion and named among the replacements as Saints opt for a 6:2 split on the bench again this weekend.
Emeka Atuanya, Freeman, Glister, Curtis Langdon, Litchfield, Tom Lockett, Charlie Ulcoq and Tom West make up the injured list.
As for the Bulls, they have opted to make seven changes to their team after losing at home to Union Bordeaux Bègles last Saturday.
Handré Pollard, Willie le Roux, Canan Moodie, Marco van Staden and David Kriel are all absent, replaced by a mix of youth and experience.
