THE PREDICTION

After losing their first two matches of the new Premiership season, Gloucester have quietly gone about a four-match unbeaten streak with a 29-20 victory at home to Newcastle Falcons last Saturday. They welcome back Adam Hastings for what could be a famous day at home once again to a struggling Exeter Chiefs side coming off an infamous day of their own. The former champions are yet to fully convince this season but a 21-33 defeat at home to London Irish was a huge shock on Saturday. That result should be a turning point in their season but it remains to be seen how they will fare against this more rugged Gloucester outfit. Backing the hosts to edge a win with a +2 headstart looks a shrewd move here.
