Wales prop Corey Domachowski will make his competitive Scarlets debut against Bulls in Pretoria on Saturday (15:00 GMT).

Domachowski suffered a chest injury in pre-season following his summer move from Cardiff and has recovered to feature in the United Rugby Championship (URC) match.

Lock Tom Allen will also make his debut after arriving from New Zealand where the 22-year-old has just finished a provincial campaign with Hawke's Bay.

Scarlets have made six changes from the team that lost 52-40 to Stormers in Cape Town with the squad being sorely tested this weekend.

Nigel Davies' side are missing eight Wales squad players with the recently called-up Macs Page joining Ellis Mee, Blair Murray, Joe Hawkins, Sam Costelow, Eddie James, Ryan Elias and Taine Plumtree.

The Scarlets backline has been particularly affected with centre Johnny Williams also injured.

Gabe McDonald comes in for his first URC start alongside Joe Roberts, who crossed for a superb hat-trick against the Stormers.

Wing Isaac Murray-Macgregor also make his first URC start, while former Wales scrum-half Gareth Davies returns.

Bulls coach Johan Ackermann has made eight changes to the team that beat Ulster 34-26.
