THE PREDICTION
Scotland star Duhan van der Merwe starred for Worcester Warriors as they grabbed a much-needed home victory over struggling Bristol Bears last Friday to snap a five-match losing streak in the Premiership. However, with Six Nations internationals once again departing this weekend they should struggle to back it up at home to reigning champions Harlequins, who snapped a three-match losing streak in style with a 29-24 victory over in-form Wasps. Quins struggled to put Worcester away in the reverse of this fixture, beating the Warriors 35-29 back in September, and this could come closer still. Take the visitors to cover a cautious -2 on the road here.
