It's sixth versus ninth at Kinsgholm this week (Saturday kick off 3.00) but with six clubs separated by just  seven points there is likely to be plenty of jostling for that fourth spot in the coming weeks.

Chiefs currently hold it with 50 points from 17 games while we are sixth with 47 points from 16 games , and this week's visitors Saints are in ninth with 42 points - also from 16 games.

Lots to play for and whoever wins at Kingsholm will do their chances a power of good.

Most notable change is at scrum half where Ben Meehan rerturns to partner Adam Hastings while Billy gets the nod at centre together with Tom Seabrook . Firepower will hopefully from a back three of Ollie Thorley, Santiago Carreras and Kyle Moyle  with Louis Rees-Zammitt ready to come on.

Ruan Ackermann will lead the side.
