Premiership Rugby : Premiership Match Centre : Preview: Newcastle Falcons v London Wasps

Wasps secured a home quarter final in the Amlin Challenge Cup with a comfortable bonus-point victory over French side Bordeaux-Begles in Pool Three at Adams Park.

Edinburgh advanced to the knockout stage of the Heineken Cup for the first time in eight years when they produced some scintillating rugby to sweep aside a London Irish side that offered little in an attacking sense at Murrayfield.

Exeter Chiefs claimed a historic Amlin Challenge Cup victory over European giants Perpignan to claim their first appearance in a European quarter-final in style.

Newcastle Falcons slipped up at Sale Sharks on Friday evening and have won just one of their last five Premiership matches.

The Falcons have been victorious in only one Premiership match at Kingston Park since 1 November 2009: 25-13 over Gloucester on 31 March.

London Wasps shared in a 58 point thriller to tie with Harlequins at Twickenham in the Aviva Premiership Rugby double header on Saturday. Wasps have won their last two away games, the most recent of which was also at Kingston Park!

The Londoners have a terrific recent record at Kingston Park, being victorious on their last five visits.
