Exeter Chiefs and Leicester Tigers meet at Sandy Park with recent history favoring the visitors but current momentum tilting in the opposite direction.
Leicester has won four of the last five meetings between the clubs, including a 28–15 victory in January 2025 during PREM play. That result continued a trend of Leicester controlling key moments in the rivalry despite Exeter’s home advantage.

Form entering this matchup, however, favors Exeter. The Chiefs are unbeaten across their last five games, posting four wins and one draw. That run includes a 30–24 victory over Saracens in their most recent outing, highlighting Exeter’s ability to close tight contests against top opposition.
Leicester arrives with a 3–2 record over its last five matches, remaining competitive but less consistent week to week.
With Sandy Park hosting this clash, Exeter will look to leverage its current rhythm and attempt to flip recent head-to-head trends. Leicester aims to lean on familiarity and structure to maintain its edge in the rivalry.
As both teams push for positioning in the PREM schedule, this matchup offers a strong test of form versus history.
