George Bower replaces the injured Joe Moody at loosehead prop, with Harry Allen remaining on the bench.
Crusaders coach Scott Robertson says Bower is a strong, versatile prop forward.
He says he was a tight head prop, but after scrumming against Owen Franks at training they realised he could play both positions at a high level.
There are eight changes to the Crusaders starting fifteen including a first appearance of the season for captain Sam Whitelock.
