Hewitt and Moriarty are among 10 changes from the 45-28 defeat to Bristol as the Men of Gwent step up preparations ahead of the new United Rugby Championship season.
He had been set to make his return following knee surgery in the Dragons' opening pre-season friendly against Bristol last Friday but withdrew as he awaited the birth of his daughter.
