Premiership Rugby : Premiership Match Centre : Preview: Harlequins v Northampton Saints

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.

Harlequins have won just one of their last four encounters in the Premiership: 35-20 over Sale at the Twickenham Stoop on 8 May. Quins have in fact won their last five games at the venue in all competitions.

Northampton Saints downed the reigning Premiership champions, Leicester Tigers, at Franklin's Gardens on Sunday, but have not begun a Premiership season with back to back victories since 2004/.05. The Saints have won three of their last four away games in the competition.

Referee: Andrew Small (45th Premiership game)
