Sports Mole looks ahead to Saturday's Aviva Premiership clash between local rivals Gloucester and Exeter at Kingsholm Stadium.

It is a West Country derby in the Aviva Premiership on Saturday as Gloucester Rugby welcome Exeter Chiefs to Kingsholm Stadium.

Despite losing their last domestic fixture, the hosts come into the match on the back of two wins in the Amlin Challenge Cup.

However, in-form Exeter can leapfrog their opponents in the table if they rack up a third consecutive league victory.

Nick Wood, Shaun Knight and Ben Morgan have all been brought into the Gloucester starting XV, while Luke Arscott and Richard Baxter are among four changes for the visitors.
