    The hosts possibly get away with one here...

    Try-scorer Alapati Leiua appears to accidentally catch Worcester's Chris Pennell with a swinging arm.

    Pennell is off for a head injury assessment, while Leiua's only punishment is to concede a penalty.

    Around 17 minutes left.

    No problems with the wind for Owen Farrell who is successful with his first kick of the second half.

    It's a lead into double figures now for the English and European champions.

    A couple of bruising hits to start the second half. Both these teams have come out with some purpose.

    Wasps 26-19 Worcester

    Warriors seem safe, but get turned over and before you know it  Alapati Leiua has powered over for a Wasps bonus point try.

    The Samoa international has a team-mate outside him but goes it alone, diving over in style.

    Jimmy Gopperth converts and Worcester must surely be looking at emptying their bench now.

    Wasps 19-19 Worcester

    Warriors have not won away at Wasps since New Year's Day 2011 - given they've had Bryce Heem sent off, it seems unlikely to happen again today despite their efforts.

    Having said that the visitors are still pushing forward at the Ricoh Arena, and they win a penalty at the maul.

    Wasps 19-19 Worcester

    Warriors have more than half an hour to survive with just 14 men now.

    Meanwhile Wasps took off England international James Haskell ahead of the second half, with Guy Thompson taking his place.

    No word on whether it's an injury that forced Haskell off.

    Saracens 17-10 Bath

    With Saracens three tries to the good and having more of the wind in the second half, they look well set for a win.

    Bath have been impressive in glimpses but they will need a lot more after the break if they're to come away with four points.

    The television match official is happy with all of the things that could've ruled this out. 

    Sean Maitland just about pushes the ball down before the dead ball line as he latches onto Alex Goode's clever grubber kick - Owen Farrell misses his conversion.

    He's already scored a try and had one disallowed, and now Worcester's Bryce Heem has been sent off after taking Willie le Roux out of the air.

    It was accidental and may seem harsh, but by the letter of the law referee Luke Pearce had no choice.

    Le Roux is back on his feet after receiving lengthy treatment on the pitch.

  12. Try review (Maitland)published at 40 mins

    Saracens 12-10 Bath

    Lots to check here for the TMO, but it looks, on first viewing, that Sean Maitland has Saracens' third try.  

  13. Missed penalty (Ford)published at 37 mins

    Saracens 12-10 Bath

    Bath miss the chance to take the lead for the first time in this game as George Ford horribly pulls his kick wide.

    His strike never seemed clean and, on this evidence, you can see why Owen Farrell is England's preferred goal kicker.

  14. Second halfpublished at 15:41 British Summer Time 26 March 2017

    Wasps 19-19 Worcester

    Danny Cirpiani gets things underway again at the Ricoh Arena for Wasps.

    His restart is poor and Worcester get the scrum - a sign of things to come?

  15. Postpublished at 34 mins

    Saracens 12-10 Bath

    This is not a decision of international quality from Sean Maitland.

    The Scotland wing is chasing back a Matt Banahan kick through and instead of waiting it to bounce over the try line and dot down for a 22 drop out, he carries it over and now Bath have a scrum five metres away.

    I'm not sure Maitland will be too popular with the Saracens pack right now.

    Saracens are back on the attack again in response to that Bath try but nothing comes of it.

    A couple of reset scrums just takes the pace out of the game.

    They didn't score off first phase from the scrum, but this is a classy score from Bath.

    Jonathan Joseph just holds onto the ball for an extra half second to create a hole for Anthony Watson to burst through, and the England winger sprints into the gap to cross with a couple of tacklers on him.

    George Ford knocks over his second kick and it is game on when it looked like Saracens might blow Bath away at the start.

  18. Postpublished at 24 mins

    Saracens 12-3 Bath

    Bath beginning to grow into this game as Jonathan Joseph's kick and chase allows Anthony Watson to drag Richard Wigglesworth back over his own line to give the visitors a five metre scrum.

    Really attacking platform this for Bath to get a first try.

    Austin on Twitter: Just brilliant from Saracens. Team try of the year. Boring Saracens? Not a chance.

    Wasps 19-19 Worcester

    That was a whirlwind, topsy-turvy 40 minutes of rugby.

    Josh Adams scored two tries for Worcester and Christian Wade has done likewise for the leaders.

    Will Rowlands has also gone over for Wasps, with Bryce Heem going over to complete the scoring.
