Quins travel to Northampton for a Friday night game which could well clinch their play-off place. At the same time Saints need the five points to boost their own ambitions.
Quins go into the game in third place and on 72 points having played 21 games with Gloucester and Chiefs yet to come.. Saints have played the same number of games but are on 63 points so their need is the greater. Could be one of the games of the season.
Quins make three changes from the last outing and they're all in the pack . Props Simon Kerrod and Wilco Louw come into the front row with Tom Lawday in the back row. Skipper Stephan Lewies will be looking to celebrate his 50th appearance with a five pointer.
Saints will be boosted by the return of Courtney Laws from a hand injury.
