Northampton Saints will kick-off the 2021/22 season with a home clash against Gloucester Rugby, with the fixtures for the upcoming campaign confirmed this morning.
The Cherry & Whites will be the first visitors to Franklin’s Gardens on Saturday 18 September (kick-off: 3pm), before the men in Black, Green and Gold travel to Sandy Park to play Exeter Chiefs in Round 2 (Saturday 25 September, kick-off: 3pm).
Saints are back at home in Round 3 to welcome London Irish on Saturday 2 October (kick-off: 2pm) ahead of Round 4’s visit to the newly-named Coventry Building Society Arena, where Northampton will play in front of the BT Sport cameras for the first time as they lock horns with Wasps on Sunday 10 October (kick-off: 3pm).
With 13 teams in next season’s Premiership, each team will receive two bye weekends during the campaign, and Chris Boyd’s side will take their first rest in Round 5.
But the action then comes thick and fast for the remainder of the month as Saints face Worcester Warriors at the Gardens on Friday 22 October (kick-off: 7.45pm), before an East Midlands Derby on home soil against Leicester Tigers on Saturday 30 October (kick-off: 3pm) – with both of the Round 6 and 7 matches being shown live on BT Sport.
