Exeter Chiefs travel to Harlequins looking for a win to boost their chances of qualifying for the end-of-season play-offs  Harlequins are ninth in PREM Rugby with their opponents in fourth place. The Chiefs had ahn excellent win last week and our prediction is for more success this weekend.

With three games to play of the main season, Exeter are in the final play-off position and five points above fifth placed Bristol. Last weekend saw them secure an excellent home victory over Bath Rugby who are second in the table.

The Chiefs have won nine of their 15 league games this season with five defeats. On the road, they have won three but lost the same number. 

Harlequins have work to do to qualify for next season's European Rugby Champions Cup. They are a place and four points behind Gloucester who currently fill the final qualifying position. They are 14 points above bottom-placed Newcastle Red Bulls who they beat 76-17 away last weekend.

That ended a run of four successive league defeats for Harlequins. Recent losses to Bath and Sale Sharks saw them concede 100 points. Harlequins have only won four league games this season, two of them coming at home. Their last three home league games have been lost.
