The Chiefs, though, will travel in confident mood, particularly given the way they dispatched the Saints in the second half of this encounter.
If this was the appetizer, then next week’s main course should serve up another treat as Exeter Chiefs and Northampton Saints will battle it out for a place in this season’s Gallagher Premiership Final at Twickenham.
