Two wins in 11 under Andre Breitenreiter after 3 in 23 under Darren Moore earlier this season. Two managerial appointments which simply haven't worked. Even if they manage to defy the odds and stay up, this has been a truly shocking campaign for Huddersfield Town.

Sale Sharks v Harlequins. Huge game in the race for the play-offs. Pretty much win or bust for Alex Sanderson’s men.
