Magners League pace-setters Edinburgh make five changes, with Steve Jones selected to start at full-back.
John Houston, Allan Jacobsen, Andrew Kelly and Scott Newlands also come in, with Chris Paterson, Ben Cairns and Ross Ford among those making way.
Meanwhile, Lions scrum-half Mike Phillips says the Ospreys will be ready for the visit of Rob Moffat's side.
"Hopefully [the 16-26 win in Glasgow] will start our season," said Phillips, whose side have yet to win at home.
"We need to build from that, start winning at home and get the crowds in.
"Edinburgh are a fantastic side who beat us at the end of last season. They like to throw the ball around so it should be a good match-up."
The Ospreys will monitor injuries to Craig Mitchell and Paul James who took knocks in Glasgow, fellow prop Adam Jones out until the new year.
Steve Tandy also went off early at the Firhill Arena with a worrying-looking back injury.
Jonathan Thomas could return after being rested in Glasgow, the back-five forward having had two tough games following his seven-month injury lay-off.
Ian Evans will be hoping for a first start since last November, the Wales lock making his injury return from the bench against Glasgow.
Kyle Traynor and Roddy Grant are the other players dropping out of the Edinburgh XV after last weekend's narrow home defeat to Leinster.
"There have been some tough selection decisions to make and, make no mistake about it the side chosen is not an experimental team," said Moffat.
"We have selected the team we believe can go to the Ospreys and win while also managing the wellbeing of the whole squad.
"You will see very few teams in the Magners League pick the same starting line-up every week and we need to maximise the resources from within our squad.
"As I've said before, the challenges we face this season in the Magners League and Heineken Cup will require contributions from every member of our squad."
