Match preview
London Irish suffered their heaviest defeat of the season last weekend, going down 52-27 at Newcastle, and could be in for another setback against champions Exeter.
The Chiefs have a knack of building towards the playoffs and name a strong side for the trip to west London as they look to take back second spot.
The Exiles' only win in their last five came against a Bath side who finished with 13 men and they may struggle to match Exeter's intensity and focus.
Exeter have scored 35 tries in their last seven games, and even the threat of rain may not stop their dominant, forward-based scoring power.
