In a gripping match in the Last 16 of the Investec Champions Cup at Sandy Park, Exeter Chiefs staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Bath, securing their place in the quarter-finals. The game was closely contested, with Bath initially leading at half-time with a score of 7-12, despite being one man down and facing a strong wind. Bath's performance was notably impacted by the early loss of key player Finn Russell to injury, just 14 minutes into the game. Exeter's Immanuel Feyi-Waboso played a pivotal role in their victory. The match was marked by Bath's strong defensive effort, including an impressive goal-line stand, but ultimately, Exeter's comeback in the second half led them to win.

This is Bath's match to lose. Exeter had a serious wind advantage in that first half. They have failed to capitalise. Can Exeter spring a surprise in the second half?

Bath put in an amazing goal line stand, and so they lead at half time and will play down the strong windin the Second half. But Finn R off the field injured Exeter still well in it. Thomas du Toit monstrous for Bath at scrum time.
