THE PREDICTION
Newcastle Falcons have been a tough side to pin down this season so far but a 14-15 victory at Exeter Chiefs last time out in the Premiership was their best of the campaign. They face a comfortable home match here to make the most of their efforts at the start of the month with travelling Worcester Warriors unlikely to grab a first win on the road this season here. The visitors enjoyed a huge win over Bristol Bears in the Premiership Rugby Cup last weekend but Newcastle’s England international stars Jamie Blamire and Adam Radwan shone during the Autumn Nations Series and their possible return should help towards a solid victory here with -8 a reasonable target.
