Burns back up now, looking alright

Gloucester's problems compounded with Burns down injured after being hit a tad late by Hargreaves.

Sarries are starting to assert their physcial dominance - assisted by the fact that they have an extra man for the next 73 mins. Qera is the man sacrificed to bring on an extra prop.

In farienss to Wood it didn't look malicious - just extremely clumsy. The Paddy Power handicap has jumped from -10 to -22

What an idiot. Saracens surely must win now?

Nigel Davis couldn't have imaging a worse start to this game! Wood lands his boot directly onto Burger's head with two clean strikes directly in front of Wayne Barnes.

Hello and welcome to this afternoons coverage of Saracens v Gloucester live from Allianz Park. Despite contrasting results in round one both coaches have kept faith in their sides from the opening weekend - bar a few injury-forced changes. Mark McCall has named a strong looking team which will be full of confidence off the back of a strong performance against London Irish last weekend. In the Gloucester pack, Matt Kvesic shuffles to blindside to accommodate the fit again Akapusi Qera. The Gloucester directer of rugby Nigel Davis has been quoted mid week demanding a 'reaction' at Allianz Park after a disappointing loss to Sale in Kingsholm last weekend. So expect the visitors to come out guns blazing and to keep with Sarries until atleast HT.

Late change for Gloucester - The experienced Jimmy Cowan replaces Dan Robson on the bench.
