RECAP: Saracens v Worcester Warriors
READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to the Premiership Round Eight encounter between Saracens and Worcester Warriors at Allianz Park.
Saracens’ defeat at Exeter last Sunday was their first in Premiership since they tripped up at home to Northampton on the opening round of this season.
That was Saracens’ first defeat at Allianz Park in Premiership since Leicester won there in February 2018.
Worcester Warriors have lost just one of their last four Premiership encounters: 3-36 at Gloucester in Round Six.
