Harlequins will be buoyed by the return of England scrum-half Danny Care for Saturday's clash with Sale.
Having seen their nine-match winning run ended by Exeter, the Quins are determined to make amends - with the inclusion of Care one of three changes.
Pete Browne and Rory Clegg also come into the side, with the Quins without the injured George Robson, Nick Evans and Karl Dickson.
Sale will welcome back leading try-scorer Tom Brady and England prop Andrew Sheridan to their line-up at the Stoop.
Brady returns from injury, while Sheridan has been released from the England squad in a bid to get some game time.
The Sharks, though, will be without Nick Macleod, Dwayne Peel and Iain Thornley .
Sharks head coach Pete Anglesea said: "We're delighted to have Andrew Sheridan, Jack Forster and Tom Brady back to strengthen our squad.
"We've trained well this week, and the players have been positive in their approach to the game. We're looking forward to giving a good account of ourselves against a very good Quins side."
