Not really happening at the moment for Harlequins as Worcester eat up plenty of time with patience on the ball and plenty of recycling and territory.

Big gain and run through the Harlequins defence by Worcester's Bryce Heem to the edge of the 22.

Worcester then shift ir right, but knock-on within eight metres of the line. Chance missed for Warriors.

Missed chance for Quins to claw back the nine-point deficit as Ben Botica is off target for the first time today from 40 metres out.

Screws his left-foot effort wide right and then Quins concede a penalty for holding on from the restart.

Decent start from Quins to this second half as Henry Cheeseman gets a decent carry to force a penalty on the 10-metre line for the hosts.

And we're back under way at The Stoop as Ben Botica restarts for Quins.

For Worcester, as well as the chance to climb further away from danger, there's a chance to break a long Premiership drought.

Well, things might not be going their way on the scoreboard at the moment, but Quins will look to extend this lengthy record over their opponents when we resume shortly.

The agony and the ecstasy were plain to see at full-time last night as Bath edged out Newcastle 21-19 at The Rec in a pulsating clash to kick-off round 17.

Fly-half Mike Delany came within inches of securing a vital away win for the Falcons only for one drop goal attempt at the death to be charged down and the other go wide of the target.

Two Semesa Rokoduguni tries in the first-half gave Bath a 12-7 lead, but Newcastle did lead 19-15 with 10 minutes remaining, only for Tom Homer to kick two late penalties for a Bath win.

Harlequins have ambitions of reaching the top four and the end of season play-offs. 

A win today for Conor O'Shea's side would put them back there and above fourth-placed Northampton.

Worcester's plight is somewhat different. 

The promoted side know another win this afternoon would almost secure their top flight status for next season with lowly London Irish set to visit them next weekend.

Well, while technology was against me, there was a moment of real controversy in that first half.

It lead to Worcester's second try through captain GJ van Velze but it came in bizarre circumstances.

Henry Cheeseman was bursting down the left flank for Quins and looked to have stepped out of touch.

The assistant began to raise his flag, then quickly put it down again when he realised Cheeseman was still in play.

Some players stood still and waited, but not Van Velze who ran onto the loose ball and sprinted for the opposite end and an opportunist try for Worcester.

Ben Botica gets the ball on the edge of his in-goal area after some concerted Worcester pressure.

He puts his left foot through it and out of touch and Craig Maxwell-Keys blows his whistle.

We're back with you. Apologies for the silence.

We'll bring you up to speed on what you've missed at half-time.

Once again, apologies for some technical difficulties we're having this afternoon, including my attempt to bring you the Harlequins line-up going missing somewhere!

Our people are working on it...

Craig Maxwell-Keys stops play 10 metres inside Worcester's half for some foul play and spots a neck roll against their captain James Horwill.

Worcester can clear their lines and then Worcester get sloppy with a fumble off the line-out.

That was a very short-lived lead for Worcester as our referee for today, Craig Maxwell-Keys, penalises the visitors this time as they fail to roll away on the floor.

Ben Botica also makes it two from two with a well-struck effort from almost 40 metres back.

Two out of two for Tom Heathcote as Harlequins hold on at the ruck from 35 metres out.

Straight down the middle from the Worcester fly-half.

Back level on the scoreboard as Warriors win a penalty at the scrum and Tom Heathcote makes no mistake with his boot from the edge of the Harlequins 22.

Early penalty slotted over by Quins' fly-half to get the scoreboard off and running.

Apologies for a slight delay on the posts coming through on this page, but we're under way at The Stoop through Ben Botica's boot.
