Bath v Saracens: Teams
Last Updated: 30/05/15 4:24pm
Both Saracens and Bath have named unchanged teams for the Aviva Premiership final at Twickenham on Saturday.
Schalk Brits takes his place on the bench at the expense of Jared Saunders in the only change to the Saracens side that beat Northampton 29-24 at Franklin's Gardens last week. Jamie George, who on Friday was called in Stuart Lancaster's World Cup squad, starts ahead of Brits.
Jacques Burger, who was man-of-the-match in the semi-final win, takes his place in the loose trio alongside Billy Vunipola and Maro Itoje. Alistair Hargeaves captains the side from the second row, where he is joined by George Kruis.
Meanwhile, Mike Ford has made no changes to the side that demolished Leicester 47-10 at the Recreation Ground on Saturday.
Matt Banahan, who scored a hat-trick during his side's explosive performance, starts on the wing with Semesa Rokoduguni, while Anthony Watson takes up duties in the No 15 jersey.
This will be the first final that Bath are contesting in since they lost 10-6 to Wasps in 2004, while Saracens have made the trip to Twickenham many times in recent seasons.
In 2011 they lifted the trophy but last year they lost in agonising fashion to Northampton in extra time.
"This is now our fourth Premiership final in six seasons," McCall said. "It would be nice to win another one.
"You get nothing for how many times you've been in a final, or for what happened last year.
"It is all about how you perform on the day. If we can nail that, then we won't be far away."
