For Quins, this fixture marks a chance to reset after a tough 38-0 loss to Exeter Chiefs. 

Despite that result, Oval data shows their defensive standards remain elite — they lead PREM Rugby in tackle success rate both last round (88.5%) and across the season (83.5%). 

Tyrone Green, set for his 100th appearance, has been a standout performer, leading the league with 441 carry meters and ranking among the top 3 for defenders beaten. 

Will Evans and Jack Kenningham also have excelled defensively, combining for 102 successful tackles in the latest round.

Harlequins head coach Jason Gilmore makes two changes, with Zach Carr earning his first Gallagher PREM start at No. 8, and Jarrod Evans coming into the midfield alongside Luke Northmore. 

Captain Cadan Murley continues on the wing, while Joe Launchbury returns to the matchday squad. 

Newcastle, still searching for its first win of the season, hands a first start to new signing Stefan Coetzee, while homegrown wing Nathan Greenwood could make his league debut off the bench. 

Oval metrics highlight the Red Bulls’ set-piece consistency and kicking strength — they average 30.9 meters per kick and rank second in mauls won this season.

Why Harlequins vs. Newcastle Red Bulls Matters

Both sides enter this Round 5 clash desperate to regain form before the international break. 

Quins are looking to re-establish their attacking rhythm, with Marcus Smith guiding the back line, and Tyrone Green celebrating his milestone match. 

Newcastle, meanwhile, is building cohesion after showing glimpses of progress in defeat to Northampton.
