Oxford University will be looking to build on an encouraging display in Lisbon when they take on the RAF in their first home game of 2010 on Tuesday (7.15pm).
The Dark Blues, who lost 24-18 to Portugal on Saturday, will be captained by Australian scrum half Nick Haydon for the first time on home soil.
Haydon has named seven Blues in a line-up that sees full back Jonathan Hudson, wing Luke Fenwick and fly half Charlie Marr getting a chance.
England Under 20 flanker Jamie Gibson comes into the pack for his first game since being injured in the Varsity Match build-up.
Spectators are warned that car parking at Iffley Road will be limited due to recent waterlogging, but there is extra space allocated at nearby SS Mary & John School, with access via Jackdaw Lane.
Oxford University: Hudson, Browne*, Cheesman*, James*, Fenwick, Marr, Haydon* (capt), Macdonald, Oliver, Johnson*#, Outen*, Guinness, Davies*, Gibson, Rickner. Reps: Rogers*, Keys, TBC, Makoto*, Russell, Yusef, Leven. * Denotes Blue. # Denotes international.
