WATCH Harlequins v Sale Sharks Live Online Free Premiership Rugby Cup 07/01/2023**Harlequins v Sale Sharks (Twickenham Stoop, 3pm) – Live on BT Sport** 🔴Watch Live▶️ https://play2tv. live/premiership-rugby/ Harlequins have slipped to back-to-back defeats in Gallagher Premiership Rugby, at home to Bristol and away at Northampton, and have not lost three in succession in the tournament since February. Quins have not lost consecutive Premiership Rugby fixtures at the Twickenham Stoop since November 2021. Sale Sharks only loss in their last four Gallagher Premiership Rugby matches was 14-20 at Newcastle on 23 December. The Sharks have not been victorious away from home in any competition since beating Leicester Tigers 26-16 at Mattioli Woods Welford Road on 8 October.
Thomas, Tom Curtis and fit-again Carpenter complete a strong replacements bench. Speaking ahead of the match, Alex said this weekend’s challenge will be a far cry from the ‘golden night’ at the AJ Bell Stadium against Leicester. He said: “It seemed like all the planets aligned against Leicester to allow us to finish off the year in the way that we wanted. “The difficulty now comes in separating that result and that performance from what we face against Quins. It’s not going to be a continuation of how it finished against Leicester. “Now we’re facing a Quins team coming off the back of a big loss, with a good coaching team and they’ll be hurting. The challenge is completely different. “When we played them at home, we were on a five game winning streak and they’d just lost and they came to our ground and physically dominated us.
