Andy Goode spills under the high ball, Saracens produce a solid scrum and look to attack. They are penalised at the breakdown and Goode brings play to Sarries' 10 meter.

Andy Goode gets us underway. Goode claims and finds touch inside Wasps' half.

The sides take the field. Kick off coming shortly.

While Sarries showed some of the best form in England and Europe last season they fell painfully short to Toulon in the Heineken cup final and also to Saints in the premiership decider at Twickenham. They will look at this fixture as a chance to regain that impressive form of last season. Today they name a strong side with Alistair Hargreaves assuming captaincy after Steve Borthwick's departure. Charlie Hodgson is preferred at 10 while Owen Farrell is named on the bench.
Wasps finished 7th last season but secured their place in Europe with a successful play off. They have recruited 13 new players for this season, 4 of whom start today. They will be confident that they can challenge this afternoon. It promises to be a thrilling game at HQ so stay with us for updates throughout.
