Exeter vs Harlequins predictions

Exeter are the only team without a win five rounds into the Premiership season but four of their five defeats have come by less than a converted try and they can seize their chance to get off the mark at home to Harlequins on Sunday.

Quins have lost their two road games in this campaign, going down by one points at Sale and by four at Northampton, but this week they are without some key players as the England squad prepare for next month’s autumn internationals.

Fly-half Marcus Smith is a key absentee while Fin Baxter, Chandler Cunningham-South, Joe Marler and Alex Dombrandt are all missing from the pack.

In contrast, Exeter have received a big boost as England centre Henry Slade, who has been sidelined with injury all season, makes his first start after being released from the England squad.

Given the changes to both line-ups this match could lack fluidity, but the Chiefs look sure to be focused on gaining a first win in front of their own fans and can dig deep for victory.
