Last meeting: March 27, 2005 –Bristol 68 Exeter 15 How will it go by Steve Cotton: Winning at Bedford will have given Bristol massive confidence, and despite Exeter also having a 100 per cent winning record, I back Bristol to win by five points. Words of wisdom: They're a very ambitious club and over the last few seasons they've been there or thereabouts. But I suppose for them it's coming to crunch time now – Bristol lock Roy Winters on Exeter's Guinness Premiership ambitions Just a thought: Bristol have won 76 of the previous 94 matches between the clubs, including a 15-0 success in their first meeting in February 1893.
