Sebastien Chabal has been recalled to the France XV for Saturday's Test against Argentina in Montpellier.
Chabal, who was on the bench for the weekend win over Fiji, comes in at number eight with Imanol Harinordoquy, who skippered the side in Nantes, having to settle for a place among the replacements.
Coach Marc Lievremont said: 'We want to see Sebastien Chabal start at number eight.
'Relative to how we played against Fiji, we can do better.'
Captain Thierry Dusautoir, centre Yannick Jauzion, prop Nicolas Mas, lock Lionel Nallet and flanker Julien Bonnaire return, as does regular hooker William Servat, who was ruled out of last week's game through a groin injury.
