Worcester have named their team to face Welsh side Scarlets at Sixways tomorrow.
England prop Matt Mullan will captain the Warriors for his first start of the pre-season campaign as Head Coach Richard Hill makes several changes from the side that defeated Cardiff Blues last weekend.

Jonny Arr and Joe Carlisle form a new half back pairing while Josh Matavesi will join forces in midfield with Jon Clarke.
Prop John Andress also makes his first start on home soil in the front row alongside skipper Mullan and Aleki Lutui. Giant No.8 Semisi Taulava will also make his bow at the home of the Warriors.
