Gloucester Rugby head north on Sunday to take on Sale Sharks in Round Three of the 2025/26 PREM Rugby Cup looking to change their fortunes having lost the first five games in the league this season.
The Cherry and Whites kicked off their season with a 29-15 home win over Exeter Chiefs in the cup before losing 24-40 to Bristol Bears at Kingsholm. With injuries taking their toll, Gloucester director of rugby George Skivington has been forced to select a very young side for this block of autumn games.
