Good afternoon everyone and welcome to the coverage of this Aviva Premiership London derby, between Irish and Wasps. Neither side have set the world alight in the opening 8 rounds of the season with just five wins between them, divided three and two in favour of Wasps. Wasps come into the game with eight changes to the team that suffered a heavy defeat at home to Bath last week. Chrisitan Wade is among the men coming back into the side and he will look to provide a threat out wide. For his opposite man Topsy Ojo, today marks his 200th appearance for London Irish, a number which seems set to rise after he extended his contract at the club on Wednesday.
