Jonny Wilkinson

Named by Toulon: Jonny Wilkinson

The big game in the Amlin Challenge Cup on Saturday comes from Sandy Park where Exeter host Perpignan to find out who will finish top of Pool 4.

Rob Baxter's men are currently one point ahead of USAP going into the final round ahead of what should be a fascinating finish between the sides.

Elsewhere and there are vital games going on between Stade Francais and Worcester while Pool 2 should be wrapped up by Toulon, who make the trip to tackle Petrarca. Newcastle's result against Lyon would then be academic.
