Harlequins play their last home game of the season this weekend against Bath Rugby in the Gallagher Premiership. 

The Stoop has been a happy hunting ground for Quins this season, having lost at home just once this year and they would like to keep that up in their final game in front of their home crowd this season. 

Bath have won their last two matches to take them clear of Newcastle at the bottom of the table and also seeing them end an eight-match winless run. 

Kick-off at the Twickenham Stoop is at 3pm on Saturday. 

London Scottish play their final home match of the season with a local derby against Richmond in the RFU Championship. 

Scottish won their second match of the season last weekend against Hartpury and would like to add a second home win to finish their season. 

Their cross-borough rivals have not fared much better as they sit second bottom of the Championship and have not won since victory over Scottish on New Year's Eve. 

Kick-off at Richmond Athletic Ground is at 3pm on Saturday. 

Ealing Trailfinders face the prospect of a RFU Championship title showdown as they face Jersey Reds this weekend. 

In the penultimate match of the league season, Eailing have a one-point advantage over Jersey in the table and victory in the Channel Islands this weekend would see them virtually confirmed as champions. 

That will be a tall order as Jersey have lost just once all season, and that was away against Ealing, and no one has taken even a point off them at home. 

Kick-off at Stade Santander is at 2pm on Saturday. 

Teddington RFC face the prospect of a crunch Counties Two Championship quarter final as they visit Warminster this weekend. 

Crushing victories over Eastbourne and Bognor to reach this stage has seen the Antlers reach this stage having won every game of the season. 

Warminster finished second in Counties Two Dorset and Wiltshire and have edged past Weymouth and Portland, and Tadley to reach the quarter finals. 

Kick-off at Warminster RFC is at 2.30pm on Saturday.
