The Penarth-born 20-year-old was in sensational two tries match-winning form for Wales as they edged to a thrilling 25-24 win at Murrayfield last weekend.
Now along with Scotland centre Chris Harris, “Rees lightning” returns to the Cherry & Whites back division as they seek to improve on last week’s nail-biting 18-17 derby defeat by leaders Bristol at Kingsholm.
Italy scrum half Stephen Varney also returns to the Gloucester squad from international duty.
Eleven of tonight’s 23 Cherry & Whites selection have progressed through the Gloucester Rugby Academy including Rees-Zammit and Varney.
