Head to Head
In their last meeting, Sale beat Exeter 30-26 away from home in May this year.
Sale Sharks Form
Sale Sharks have had a strange season thus far, winning two and losing three of their eight matches. Most of their games have, however, been quite close and could have gone either way.
Sale began their campaign with a 27-10 win over Gloucester at home before losing 28-16 at Bath. A 57-5 victory followed at home against Newcastle.
In round for, the Sharks came in for a rude awakening as Saracens humiliated them 65-14. In round five, Sale will feel they should have beaten Leicester away, but they came up just short, losing 36-25.
