Gloucester-Hartpury head to the StoneX Stadium in the Allianz Premier 15s to play Saracens on Saturday.

Head Coach Sean Lynn says the focus is firmly on themselves, despite what will be a tough challenge in London.

"Going up to StoneX is always a tough challenge. Saracens have a winning mentality, they work hard for each other and they're a well drilled side.

"But we have gone three from three which has been a brilliant start, so we want to take that momentum into that Saracens game. We want to be us and do what we are good at and enjoy the occasion."

Their three wins have put them top of the Premier 15s tree going into round 4 but Lynn knows a lot can change over the course of a season.

"We'll let the table sort itself out. We have a massive game this week against Saracens and we are focussed on preparing and having a really good training week because we know how good Sarries can be, despite losing to Harlequins last weekend."

Last weekend, Gloucester-Hartpury beat Wasps 67-3, and Lynn was pleased with his side's performance.

"We were very happy, going to Wasps can be a tough task. I did rotate a few of the girls in and it was aa great opportunity to see some girls play 50/80 minutes so overall it was great."

Lynn had made 10 changes to the starting XV and was delighted with how the players that came in made their mark.

"It's about getting a good balance, we are making sure that we are getting the girls from the World Cup coming back in to the Gloucester-Hartpury and then giving them a 40 minute, a 50 minute and an 80 minute performance under their belts. The girls took their opportunities well and it was great to come away with the bonus point win."

Gloucester-Hartpury's game against Saracens kicks off at 2.30pm on Saturday and will be streamed live on the Premier 15s website.
