Saracens' players were left heartbroken after Freddie Burns' last-minute drop-goal in last year's final Sale aiming to end long wait for Premiership success Sharks fans haven’t had a huge amount to celebrate over the last couple of decades. The 2019-20 Premiership Rugby Cup title was a rare honour for a club that have generally found themselves mid-table in the top flight. Sale’s Director of Rugby Alex Sanderson has taken the team to new heights, though, since his appointment in 2021. Victory over holders Leicester Tigers in the semi-final thanks to tries from Tom Roebuck and Arron Reed and some impressive kicking from George Ford sent Sharks into their first Premiership final in 17 years.
England’s most successful team aren’t in Saracens' way this time, though. Instead, the less fancied Sale Sharks will attempt to stop the Premiership’s most consistent team. Owen Farrell and co will be determined to put right the disappointment of 2022 and secure a sixth Premiership title for Saracens, a total that would take them level with Bath and Wasps. After a relatively comfortable semi-final victory over Northampton, in which Scotland winger Sean Maitland starred with two tries, there is just one step left to take for the North London club.

Saracens out for redemption The cruel reality of last year’s Premiership final defeat to Leicester will have taken some time to get over for everyone associated with Saracens. With the score level at 12-12, Freddie Burns' last-minute drop-goal secured victory for Leicester Tigers in the most dramatic fashion. There was jubilation for the winners but devastation for the beaten Saracens players, who looked on disconsolately as Leicester lifted the trophy for an 11th time.
Sale won that final in 2006, beating Leicester 45-20 to win their first and only title. A lot has happened since, but the long wait could be worth it for Sale fans if they come out on top this weekend. Alex Sanderson has guided Sale to new heights this season Ford vs Farrell on the biggest stage Club rugby doesn’t get much bigger than this and there are few players better suited to such an occasion than George Ford and Owen Farrell. With close to 200 England caps between them, both players are hugely influential for their respective teams. Dependable when called upon for penalties and conversions and expert kickers in open play, it wouldn’t be surprising to see one of the two make a decisive impact in the final as Burns did for Leicester last year.
