Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of the LV= Cup Final with Exeter Cheifs taking on Northampton Saints at Sandy Park.Exeter Chiefs have rewarded Fetu'u Vainikolo for his impact off the bench last week with a start today.The finisher comes in for Tom James on the right wing, with Matt Jess making the switch to the opposite touchline while Jason Shoemark is 12.Shoemark replaces Ian Whitten in the line-up in an otherwise unchanged backline to the one that edged Bath 22-19 at the Recreation Ground.And now Exeter head coach Rob Baxter has challenged his players to go out and create yet more headlines in the history of the club.Meanwhile, Northampton have rung the changes for today's finale at Sandy Park.Over 40 players have seen action in the Saints' LV= Cup campaign so far this season, and defence coach Alan Dickens admitted during the week that selection had been difficult.
In the backs James Wilson and Jamie Elliott come in at centre and wing respectively after missing the semi-final win over Saracens, with Stephen Myler swapping with Will Hooley.Up front there are returns to the starting line-up for props Alex Waller and Salesi Ma'afu, second-row forward Samu Manoa and back-rowers Calum Clark and GJ Van Velze.
