JP Doyle is the man in the middle for a rematch of the 2017 Aviva Premiership Rugby Final as a thrilling Round 15 comes to a conclusion on Sunday with Wasps entertaining Exeter Chiefs.

Wasps, after a stuttering start, are flying high, with their 44-22 win at Harlequins leaving them third in the table – behind only Exeter and Saracens.

However, history is against them heading into this contest, with Exeter having won six of their last seven encounters with Dai Young’s men, while they have not lost three in a row since 2015 – something they’re at risk of on Sunday after defeats to Newcastle Falcons and Worcester Warriors.

Doyle, who will take charge of his 146th Premiership Rugby game, is supported by Anthony Woodthorpe and Karl Dickson on the line, with Sean Davey the TMO.
