Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Aviva Premiership with Worcester Warriors hosting Northampton Saints at Sixways. Worcester's only victory in any competition this season was 21-16 at Cardiff Blues in the LV= Cup on 8th November. The Warriors have not been victorious at their own Sixways ground since London Wasps were the visitors in the Premiership on 1 March. Northampton Saints on the other hand have lost only once since late September. The Saints solo away loss in the Premiership this season was 24-26 at Gloucester in round 3. Worcester's only victory in their last eight clashes with Northampton was 12-3 at Sixways on 30 September 2011. When you look at those stats Warriors come out clear under dogs in this clash. Can they make something of the home advantage and catch the Saints off guard? Kick off not too far away now, I hope you enjoy the coverage!
