Bears team looks super strong, Quins will have to be at their very best to pull off a win.

The other semi looks more even but Chiefs maybe have the stronger bench and the experience of semi's and finals to draw on.

Betfair have Bristol to win by 9 and Exeter to win by 8.

Both the Curry twins + a better setpiece could see Sale nick it, however I think that momentum is with Exeter and as such have predicted them to win.

The loss of AJMcG for Sale could be crucial.

I have a feeling Bristol will take Quins apart, especially if things don’t go Quins way in the first 20 mins. Sale Exeter will be a closer contest - Sale might have enough to get over the line.

I think that both games may be quite close and could come down to who keeps 15 men on the pitch

Wouldn’t be surprised to see a few cards in the Sale Exeter game.

It will be a brutal game,Chiefs slight favourites for me. Bristol v Quins will be a try fest! Can't wait!

I wouldn't be overly surprised if Bears Quins isn't a try fest, both sides may be so worried about the opposition attack that it stifles their own. Knockout rugby can be odd..
