Quins have made four changes to their starting line-up ahead of their away trip to Northampton tomorrow night.
Following the sweeping 51-23 victory over Sale at The Stoop last Saturday Head of Rugby Paul Gustard announced his squad Thursday lunchtime which included starts for Ben Glynn, Archie White, James Chisolm and Charlie Walker.
Despite the impressive start Gustard is not getting ahead of himself and knows Saints will be looking for a better performance following their 27-16 defeat at Gloucester.
"There were a lot of good things about last week’s win against Sale but it was one win. We have won nothing more than that match and we are under no illusions about the challenges and quality in the competition,” said Gustard.
"Franklin's Gardens is always a tough place to get a result. It will be Saints first home match of the season and they will want to perform in front of their supporters.
“There are talented players throughout their squad, they are well coached and we as a group are looking forward to finding a way to get the result we want.”
