READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our coverage of the European Cup quarterfinal showdown between Exeter Chiefs and Northampton Saints in Exeter.

Exeter and Northampton have never met in European competition before. Both clubs have faced Premiership opposition on five occasions in the Champions Cup with the Chiefs winning three times and Saints winning once.

Exeter has reached the quarterfinal stage just once previously, losing out to Wasps with the final kick of the game at the Ricoh Arena in 2016.
