  1. Penalty (Farrell)published at 27 mins

    Saracens 9-3 Exeter

    Saracens were awarded a penalty for a late tackle on Michael Rhodes by Exeter lock Geoff Parling.

    Assistant referee JP Doyle called that one - it looked slightly marginal despite the fact Rhodes was close to the line.

    Owen Farrell is successful with the kick and restores Saracens' six-point lead.

    The game becomes very stretched following an Exeter line-out which was over-cooked and given away to Sarries.

    Schalk Brits bursts up to within metres of the line and off-loads towards Michael Rhodes - but he can't gather.

    Play then breaks down with knock-ons and a Sarries kick charge-down, but we're called back for a penalty for Saracens.

    Saracens have had so much territory, possession and movement forward to be just one kick at goal down the Exeter players will feel they are very much in the game.

    Gareth Steenson goes for a long-range drop goal, with Wayne Barnes playing advantage for an infringement at the line-out.

    IT drops short, but he'll have another go from the kicking tee.

    Saracens are one of those sides that are very happy to play without the ball. They're quite happy to kick the ball upfield and chase, because then they've got the territory. And then they're asking Chiefs 'are you brave enough to come at us?'

    After soaking up further waves of Saracens attacks and claiming the ball following a knock-on, Exeter waste a chance to counter-attack.

    The ball is spread wide and Henry Slade looks to kick ahead, but he slices the ball out for a line-out.

    "Saracens are on top in almost every department so far.

    "Exeter's kicking isn't good enough, so they are continually inviting pressure on themselves."

    Saracens 6-0 Exeter

    Saracens win the scrum and continue to test the Chiefs.

    A couple of committed tackles slow their progress and eventually Sarries hooker Schalk Brits knocks on.

    A defensive scrum for Exeter to survive now on the edge of their own 22.

    Saracens come forward again and threaten the Exeter defence as the spread the ball wide.

    It looks like they have set-up a three-on-two but Mako Vunipola delays his pass when Chris Ashton looks set to be unleashed, and a Chiefs player manages to get a hand on the ball.

    Sarries have an attacking scrum though out wide.

    Will Chudley claims a high kick forward from Saracens but then runs straight into Chris Ashton.

    Exeter manage to recycle the ball and look to start another attack with a kick forward.

    However Olly Woodburn knocks on and Sarries get a scrum just inside their own half.

    This time Saracens get a free-kick at the scrum.

    I think goal-kicking is going to be a huge thing today. Owen Farrell has settled in early doors.

    It's right in front of the posts and it's meat and drink for Owen Farrell.

    Saracens might have wanted more from that attack, but they've managed to stretch their lead to six points.

    Exeter steal the resulting Saracens line-out but are pushed back inside their own 22.

    Jack Nowell decides to run and, following a clearing kick, the Chiefs manage to regain possession on halfway.

    Exeter start to have some possession and look to make inroads into the Sarries half but a penalty for holding on to the ball stops their progress.

    Moments ago Sarries full-back Alex Goode made a meal of a kick from Will Chudley, but got away with one as he fumbled in behind him.

    It's from just outside the 22 in fact, about eight metres in from the touchline.

    Owen Farrell measures it up, and slots it through the posts to give Saracens an early lead at Twickenham.
