THE PREDICTION
Harlequins lost in a big way at Sale Sharks last Friday to make it back-to-back defeats on the road but they are three matches unbeaten at home across all competitions and unbeaten here in the Top 14 since December. Travelling Newcastle Falcons have enjoyed a return to decent form after a dreadful middle third of their first season back in the Premiership and they have won their last three at home but their away record suggests this will be a fairly comfortable win for the hosts. Quins know their fourth place in the play-offs is secured and could rest a few players here so take the hosts to cover a reduced -7 to finish off their regular season.
