As Back in Black sounds around the stands we're all ready to rock n' roll, Danny Cipriani has the ball in his hands and he gives it a thump to get this show on the road.

Today's fixture caps off round 15 and they'll be just seven matches remaining in the regular season once it's done.

The contenders for the top four and the prized European Challenge Cup qualification places are starting to take shape, so who are your tips to be a surprise inclusion in there?

Will Newcastle finish off their impressive campaign or do the likes of Sale and Leicester still have time to creep in there?

Today’s referee is JP Doyle and he’s taking charge of his 146th Aviva Premiership game, there’s also a familiar face on one touchline.

Former Premiership scrum-half Karl Dickson is one of the assistant referees and Anthony Woodthorpe is the other.

Sean Davey is the TMO and in the truck and we’re almost ready to go.

We've got a choice of radio commentaries for you this afternoon from our colleagues at BBC local radio.

We all love a good stat don’t we?

• Wasps are the best team in the domestic competition on current form having obtained 24 league points from the last six rounds.

• Exeter have lost their last two Premiership matches but have not lost three in a row in the same season since January 2015.

• Exeter have lost only one of their last seven encounters with Wasps in all tournaments.

Replacements: Innard, Moon, Holmes, Skinner, Waldrom, Townsend, J Simmonds, Whitten.

Rob Baxter hands starts to props Alec Hepburn and Tomas Francis, who are both back from Six Nations duty.

Julian Salvi makes his first league start since November while Will Chudley and Ollie Devoto also come in.

On the bench, hooker Jack Innard gets his first-ever involvement in a Premiership squad, while Sam Skinner has recovered from a broken hand.

Meanwhile 157 miles away Worcester recorded a first-ever win at Sandy Park, grinding out a one-point victory 6-5, with a superb defensive display.

Chris Pennell’s two penalties put the visitors 6-0 up at the break and the Chiefs’ only response came through a Mitch Lees’ 56th-minute five-pointer.

Of course one of the big pieces of news that has emerged since Round 14 is the fact that Danny Cipriani will leave Wasps at the end of the season.

"I'll be sad to leave Wasps, but my job is far from finished. I can promise the fans my absolute all until the end of the season. I will now take some time to decide my next move.” said the 30-year-old.

The Coventry based outfit have already signed All Blacks fly-half Lima Sopoaga for next season.

Jimmy Gopperth is back in the starting XV for the first time in since mid-December after a 15-minute cameo from the bench last weekend.

He replaces Kyle Eastmond, who starts his six-game ban, while Marcus Watson returns on the right wing.

Marty Moore comes in at tighthead and a late change sees Gaby Lovobalavu replacing Juan De Jongh, with Brendan Macken coming onto the bench.

Replacements: Johnson, Mullan, Cooper-Woolley, Rowlands, Rieder, Simpson, Macken, Wade.

In Round 14 Wasps shrugged off Kyle Eastmond being handed a red card after just 17 minutes to deliver a six-try victory at the Twickenham Stoop.

Eastmond was dismissed for a swinging arm at Marcus Smith but even with 14 men his side were free-flowing in attack and scored tries at will.

Wasps and Exeter are going into this encounter off the back of two very different results, as you’ll see in just a moment, and last season's finalists both are well-aware of the importance of this weekend's meeting.

It's been an action-packed weekend and if you’ve been out and about then let us bring you up to speed with the results so far:

• Newcastle 29-12 Bath
• Sale 3-13 Saracens
• Leicester 33-18 Harlequins
• Northampton 25-17 London Irish
• Worcester 25-15 Gloucester

Leicester’s home victory keeps them in the hunt for a play-off place whilst a victory for Worcester, and London Irish not picking up a losing bonus-point at Franklin’s Gardens, means that the Exiles are now 16 points adrift at the foot of the table.
