Both sides were beaten away from home in the Premiership last weekend, the Chiefs 25-18 at Welford Road against Leicester Tigers and the Falcons 22-21 at the Madejski Stadium at the hands of London Irish. This semifinal position in Europe will be certainly something that both teams will value, expect a big performance from each contestant this evening.

On paper, the Chiefs are certainly favourites, having won their pool, reached the LV=Cup final already this season and sitting 28 points and five places better off in the Premiership than the Falcons. But the north-east side have already beaten the Dragons and Stade Francais in the tournament to show their capabilities.

The last time Newcastle Falcons played at Sandy Park they were well beaten 46-17, but Rob Baxter won't let his Exeter Chiefs players take anything for granted against their familiar Aviva Premiership rivals.When the two teams met at Kingston Park at the start of the season it was the Falcons who came out on top, so their European Rugby Challenge Cup quarter-final clash today will be a season's decider.
