It's a toughie against Sarries but we are at home and here's the first team of the new Gallagher Premiership season.
It's the new faces which will be attracting the most attention as Wade, Anscombe and Williams trot out at Kingsholm for a 5.30 kick off on Saturday.
Jack Singleton is also back from Toulon and it will be interesting to see what that exposure has done for the hooker's game. He'll pack down alongside Val Rapava-Ruskin and the rising star Afo Fasogbon, the England U20s World Championship winner.
Max Llewellyn starts in the centre alonsgide Chris Harris with a back three of Ollie Thorley, Christian Wade and George Barton.
On paper Gloucs have one of the strongest line-up in the Prem. Let's see how they go on the plastic.
