WORCESTER WARRIORS

Saints will be looking to go hard at this one before their internationals disappear and should make it 12 home wins in a row against a Worcester side that is still way too generous in defence.

Northampton Saints: 15 Tommy Freeman, 14 Ollie Sleightholme, 13 Fraser Dingwall, 12 Rory Hutchinson, 11 Courtnall Skosan, 10 Dan Biggar, 9 Alex Mitchell; 1 Alex Waller, 2 Sam Matavesi, 3 Paul Hill, 4 David Ribbans, 5 Api Ratuniyarawa, 6 Courtney Lawes, 7 Lewis Ludlam (c), 8 Teimana Harrison

Replacements: 16 Mike Haywood, 17 Emmanuel Iyogun, 18 Ehren Painter, 19 Tom Wood, 20 Juarno Augustus, 21 Frank Lomani, 22 Piers Francis, 23 Alex Coles

Worcester Warriors: 15 Jamie Shillcock, 14 Harri Doel, 13 Ollie Lawrence, 12 Francois Venter, 11 Duhan van der Merwe, 10 Fin Smith, 9 Willi Heinz (C), 1 Rory Sutherland, 2 Niall Annett, 3 Christian Judge, 4 Andrew Kitchener, 5 Graham Kitchener, 6 Kyle Hatherell, 7 Sam Lewis, 8 Matt Kvesic.

PREDICTION – CHIEFS BY 25

LONDON IRISH

Exeter Chiefs have won 13 of their last 15 games against London Irish in the Premiership, with their last five wins against the Exiles all coming by 15+ points.

Buoyed by three straight wins, Rob Baxter’s men are starting to find their stride and don’t look particularly weakened by the changes in personnel from last week’s win against Wasps.

Verdict: Chiefs to easily overcome the 19-point handicap.

Exeter Chiefs: 15 Stuart Hogg, 14 Jack Nowell, 13 Henry Slade (c), 12 Tom Hendrickson, 11 Tom O’Flaherty, 10 Joe Simmonds, 9 Jack Maunder; 1 Ben Moon, 2 Jack Yeandle, 3 Sam Nixon, 4 Will Witty, 5 Jonny Hill, 6 Sam Skinner, 7 Richard Capstick, 8 Sam Simmonds

Replacements: 16 Jack Innard, 17 Alec Hepburn, 18 Harry Williams, 19 Sean Lonsdale, 20 Don Armand, 21 Sam Hidalgo-Clyne, 22 Harvey Skinner, 23 Ollie Devoto

London Irish: 15 Tom Parton, 14 Ben Loader, 13 Curtis Rona, 12 Terrence Hepetema, 11 Ollie Hassell-Collins, 10 Paddy Jackson, 9 Nick Phipps; 1 Will Goodrick-Clarke, 2 Agustin Creevy, 3 Ollie Hoskins, 4 Steve Mafi, 5 Rob Simmons, 6 Matt Rogerson (c), 7 Tom Pearson, 8 Albert Tuisue.

Replacements: 16 Mike Willemse, 17 Allan Dell, 18 Marcel van der Merwe, 19 George Nott, 20 Jack Cooke, 21 Ben White, 22 Rory Jennings, 23 Benhard van Rensburg.

PREDICTION – GLOS BY 4

Newcastle_Falcons_logo

NEWCASTLE FALCONS

Home advantage might be the deciding factor in what looks like being the closest tie of the round on paper.

Abrasive Newcastle are still much stronger at home than away and for all the talent they possess out wide, they still don’t score enough tries to chalk up a good run of wins, whether in front of their own fans or not.

Verdict: Gloucester to shade a contrast of styles.

Gloucester: 15. Jason Woodward, 14. Louis Rees-Zammit, 13. Chris Harris, 12. Mark Atkinson, 11. Jonny May, 10. Lloyd Evans, 9. Ben Meehan; 1. Val Rapava-Ruskin, 2. Jack Singleton, 3. Kirill Gotovtsev, 4. Freddie Clarke, 5. Matias Alemanno, 6. Ruan Ackermann, 7. Lewis Ludlow, 8. Ben Morgan

Replacements: 16. Santiago Socino, 17. Jamal Ford-Robinson, 18. Fraser Balmain, 19. Andrew Davidson, 20. Jack Clement, 21. Stephen Varney, 22. Billy Twelvetrees, 23. Satiago Carreras

Newcastle Falcons: 15. Mike Brown, 14. Nathan Earle, 13. Ben Stevenson, 12. Pete Lucock, 11. Mateo Carreras, 10. Brett Connon, 9. Louis Schreuder; 1. Adam Brocklebank, 2. George McGuigan, 3. Trevor Davison, 4. Greg Peterson, 5. Philip van der Walt, 6. Callum Chick, 7. Will Welch, 8. Carl Fearns

Replacements: 16. Jamie Blamire, 17. Kyle Cooper, 18. Richard Palframan, 19. George Merrick, 20. Josh Basham, 21. Cameron Nordli-Kelemeti, 22. Joel Hodgson, 23. George Wacokecoke

PREDICTION – QUINS BY 26

bath-rugby-logo

BATH RUGBY

Max Clark should add a bit more solidity to Bath’s midfield but free-scoring Quins will still find enough holes to do untold damage.

Bath still try and talk a good game but to be 45-0 down at half-time -albeit against Saracens – speaks volumes for where they are at as a side.

After a flat performance by their standards in losing up at Sale, Quins will be looking to turn on the style again and with Danny Care and Marcus Smith pulling the strings, we fancy Quins to win emphatically.

Verdict: Back Quins at -17 and go over 61.5 total match points.

Harlequins: 15. Tyrone Green, 14. Louis Lynagh, 13. Joe Marchant, 12. Andre Esterhuizen, 11. Cadan Murley, 10. Marcus Smith, 9. Danny Care; 1. Joe Marler, 2. Jack Walker, 3. Will Collier, 4. Matt Symons, 5. Dino Lamb, 6. James Chisholm, 7. Tom Lawday, 8. Alex Dombrandt

Replacements: 16. Sam Riley, 17. Santiago Garcia Botta, 18. Simon Kerrod, 19. Hugh Tizard, 20. Luke Wallace, 21. Scott Steele, 22. Huw Jones, 23. Luke Northmore

Bath Rugby: 15. Tom de Glanville, 14. Semesa Rokoduguni, 13. Jonathan Joseph, 12. Max Clark, 11. Ruaridh McConnochie, 10. Orlando Bailey, 9. Joe Simpson; 1. Beno Obano, 2. Jacques du Toit, 3. Will Stuart, 4. Josh McNally, 5. Charlie Ewels, 6. Tom Ellis, 7. Sam Underhill, 8. Jaco Coetzee

Replacements: 16. Tom Dunn, 17. Lewis Boyce, 18. D’Arcy Rae, 19. Mike Williams, 20. Richard de Carpentier, 21. Ollie Fox, 22. Danny Cipriani, 23. Gabriel Hamer-Webb

PREDICTION – TIGERS BY 10

sale-sharks-logo

SALE SHARKS

Points will have to be hard-earned in this fixture between two sides with effective rush defences, hence the Unders/Over bar has been set at a low 46.5 points.

Having Lood de Jager, Jono Ross and Tom Curry in the loose five means Tigers won’t be in for an easy ride but the home side should eventually assert their authority.

Sale won’t lie down – and Manu Tuilagi will be revved up for this one on his old stomping ground – but a lot of their good rugby comes off nine, an area of the side where they have been hit by injuries, and they may struggle to score enough points to dent Tigers’ unbeaten record.

Verdict: Tigers to defy -6 handicap

Leicester Tigers: 15 Freddie Steward,14 Harry Potter, 13 Matt Scott, 12 Dan Kelly, 11 Nemani Nadolo, 10 George Ford, 9 Ben Youngs 1 Ellis Genge (C), 2 Julián Montoya, 3 Dan Cole, 4 Harry Wells, 5 Calum Green, 6 Hanro Liebenberg, 7 Marco van Staden, 8 Jasper Wiese.

Replacements: 16 Nic Dolly, 17 Nephi Leatigaga, 18 Joe Heyes, 19 George Martin, 20 Tommy Reffell, 21 Richard Wigglesworth, 22 Freddie Burns, 23 Matías Moroni.

Sale Sharks: 15. Simon Hammersley, 14. Byron McGuigan, 13. Manu Tuilagi, 12. Rohan Janse van Rensburg, 11. Marland Yarde, 10. Kieran Wilkinson, 9. Gus Warr; 1. Bevan Rodd, 2. Tommy Taylor, 3. Nick Schonert, 4. Cobus Wiese, 5. Lood de Jager, 6. Jono Ross (C), 7. Tom Curry, 8. Jean-Luc du Preez.

Replacements 16. Curtis Langdon, 17. Ross Harrison, 18. Coenie Oosthuizen, 19. Jean-Pierre du Preez, 20. Ben Curry, 21. Nye Thomas, 22. Tom Curtis, 23. Sam James.
