Saracens entertain Sale Sharks on Sunday and have named the squad who will be in action at Vicarage Road, kick off 3pm.

In changes to the side, Nick Lloyd comes in at prop while Iain Fullarton is also included in the starting line-up. Taine Randell makes his first start of the season with the backline remaining unchanged.

"We know it's going to be a very hard game," explained Head Coach Mike Ford. "They have a terrific and aggressive pack and if we are not focussed on this game we will find it tough. I believe Sale will be a top-three side come the end of the season,  but we are looking forward to the challenge and testing ourselves against the best is part of our development as a squad."
