Neither side was able to take a hold of the clash in the first half, as Freddie Burns and Gordon Ross each kicked two penalties to ensure that the sides were level at the break.

Gloucester found themselves a man down early in the second half, as Jonny May was shown a yellow card for a deliberate knock-on.

The win puts Gloucester back in the top four in the table.
