Gallagher Premiership — Sunday 24 May 2026

Sunday 24 May 2026

Match of the Day

The race for the play-offs heats up as Saracens and Harlequins vie for supremacy

The focus in the Gallagher Premiership remains squarely on the play-offs. With crucial matches approaching, Saracens winger Rotimi Segun is intent on keeping the pressure on, specifically mentioning his goal of giving Saracens chief Mark McCall a perfect send-off. The wing suggests that a victory over Harlequins, followed by overcoming the Exeter Chiefs, would make for an explosive top four win-or-bust scenario at Sandy Park. Harlequins, meanwhile, are looking to build on their returning momentum, as scrum-half Will Porter stated: "We’re aiming to take down the big guys." These top clubs are desperate to cement their spots for the semi-finals, which are set for the weekend of 13 June, leading to the final at Allianz Stadium Twickenham on 20 June. The league top currently belongs to Northampton Saints, who sit four points clear at the top of the standings.
