Wasps 17-7 Bath
A high tackle from Luke Charteris and a clear penalty for Wasps.
Jimmy Gopperth, the Premiership's top points scorer this season, makes no mistake from the tee.
He takes his tally to 135 points and puts Wasps back out to a 10-point lead.
Saracens 13-6 Newcastle

The England winger is no doubt itching to get involved. When will Mark McCall give the call?

Wasps 14-7 Bath
Image source, Getty ImagesJust as I began writing about Bath's AWOL defence, they've gone and got a score of their own.
And it's another memorable one. Jonathan Joseph with a brilliant break, Bath recycle the ball and Ross Batty crosses for their first try of the afternoon.
George Ford with an easy kick to add the extras.
Wasps 14-0 Bath
Image source, Rex FeaturesBrilliant set-up play gives Christian Wade a one-on-one opportunity. He manages to get out of the tackle and quick feet helps him navigate his way to the try-line.
A superb try from the Wasps winger, and his second in a dozen minutes.
Gopperth has no trouble with the conversion and Bath are already in trouble.
Wasps 7-0 Bath
Frank Halai, with a rare chance to start this season, hasn't passed the HIA and won't be returning to the field. Unfortunate for Wasps, but Rob Miller will now be with us for the duration.
Saracens 13-6 Newcastle
Image source, Getty ImagesReally competitive, spirited game of Christmas Eve rugby union from Saracens and Newcastle, with the league leaders coming back from behind to lead at the break.
One try in the half, from Marcelo Bosch, but it's an intriguing battle in the forwards that suggests more points will follow.
Sarries keep offering flickers of their class, Falcons have such a powerful pack and they'd battered on the door a couple of times, only to be held up.
Big 40 to come.
Wasps 7-0 Bath
Image source, Rex FeaturesAled Brew makes an unfortunate mistake under the high-kick, leading to a beautiful offload from Thomas Young, who earlier earned the vital turnover for the penalty, and Christian Wade's drought is over. An easy slide over the line for the try.
Gopperth adds the extras and Wasps have an early lead.

My golden lab Heidi and lurcher Frank love running around with a ball.

Wasps 0-0 Bath
Image source, Getty ImagesAn early change for that explosive Wasps backline as Frank Halai leaves the field for a head-injury assessment. Rob Miller is the man to replace him, perhaps temporarily.
And the first job for Miller is to stop Semesa Rokoduguni in full-flight. The winger gets the ball from the back of the scrum and sets off towards the try-line, before Millier strips the ball.
Saracens 13-6 Newcastle
Image source, Getty ImagesSeven point lead is ensured by Owen Farrell's metronomic boot. Swung to perfection. Five to go to the break.
Saracens 10-6 Newcastle
Saracens might be top of the Premiership but they're certainly not having it all their own way here against Newcastle.
The scrummage has been a phenomenal contest so far - neither side prepared to give in. Very few resets to my memory either.
Matt Carley has had captains Owen Farrell and Mark Wilson together to stop a bit of the chat that has been ringing in his ears. Lots of big blokes with lots to say...
Wasps 0-0 Bath
Wasps have had all the possession so far but they're crashing into the big Bath forwards at the moment.
Frank Halai does make a nice break down the left wing but the ball is eventually spilt forward by Thomas Young and Bath have their hands on the ball for the first time.
A lung-busting start to this game at the Ricoh.
Wasps 0-0 Bath
Image source, Getty ImagesDanny Cipriani gets us under way in our second game of the day, in Coventry.
Saracens 10-6 Newcastle
Vereniki Goneva shows his class, racing downfield and chipping ahead after Newcastle Falcons stripped the ball to go from defence to attack. Only Sean Maitland's 'block' stops the Fijian from getting to the bouncing ball to make it a contest.
A Falcons scrum wins the visitors a penalty and huge pressure on the Saracens line eventually comes to an end when the penalty is awarded against Falcons.
Massive test passed by Sarries.

Wasps v Bath (14:00 GMT)
Image source, Rex FeaturesThis one is certainly set to be a real Christmas cracker! And there's no joke inside this one for Wasps fans.
Kurtley Beale is set to make his first Premiership start for Wasps as Dai Young has a near full complement of backs to select from for the first time this season.
Wasps are attempting to complete a perfect year in Coventry, where they have won 17 straight games but in their way stand a rejuvenated Bath outfit.
Just two points behind Wasps in the table, and with Taulupe Faletau back in fine form, Todd Blackadder's side will be looking to end a run off three-straight away-defeats and bring a win home for Christmas.
Saracens 10-6 Newcastle
Just as I was about to say it had calmed down a bit, some short-side pressure from Saracens sets the platform and good hands puts Marcelo Bosch through a gaping hole to wrest the lead for the first time.
Owen Farrell slots the extras. Four-point lead.
Wasps v Bath (14:00 GMT)
