Tom Court, David Paice and Halani Aulika make up the front row with George Skivington and Sean Cox in the second row. Luke Narraway and Tom Guest join Gilsenan in the back row.

Chris Noakes and Scott Steele form the half back pairing with Shane Geraghty and Fergus Mulchrone in the centre. Topsy Ojo, Alex Lewington and Andrew Fenby make up the back three.

Irish will be aiming to bounce back from last weekend's heavy 36-8 defeat at Sale when they take on a Bath side sitting third in the Premiership table with five wins from their seven matches this season.

Exiles, however, have won just twice in the league this campaign and are currently 10th in the table.

London Irish director of rugby, Brian Smith said: “We’re all looking forward to the battle with Bath. They’re a quality side and will be buoyed by the return of their England big guns.

"But we’ve had a terrific week in preparation and our boys are keen to bounce back with a big performance tomorrow. November is always a big test of squad depth."
