The Chiefs lost to Saracens in both the 2016 and 2018 showpiece games but triumphed over Wasps after extra time in 2017.

Rob Baxter will be hoping his side can dominate the knockout rounds in the same way they routed to the top of the regular season standings.

Exeter finished eight points clear of Saracens, and 32 points clear of their semi-final opponents Northampton who made a strong late surge to reach the knockouts.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says...

For all Northampton’s excellent efforts to reach the semi-finals, they were still crushed 40-21 by Exeter at the weekend, thus is the power of Baxter’s squad.

Northampton weren’t aware during the game that their play-off place was secured regardless due to Harlequins’ defeat.

They were playing all-out for the win with everything on the line and they could barely dent the Chiefs. Expect the same again.

Prediction: Exeter Chiefs win
