- Bath will be awarded 28-0 win, boosting European hopes
- Scotland name 17 uncapped players in 37-man summer squad
Gloucester’s final home match of the season against Bath on Saturday has been cancelled because of a Covid‑19 outbreak which threatens major disruptions to the climax of the season.
Premiership Rugby announced on Tuesday that the match had been called off because of a number of cases detected at Gloucester after symptoms had been reported on Sunday. As a result Bath are set to be awarded a 28-0 win which would significantly boost their hopes of a top-eight finish and qualification for next season’s Champions Cup, all the while denting Gloucester’s hopes.
