HARLEQUINS hope the high-octane Twickenham factor can supercharge their Premiership play-off bid in tomorrow's crucial clash against league leaders Northampton.

Quins must find right tempo to keep title dream alive

Quins host Saints in the Big Summer Kick-Off fixture fully intending to capitalise on not just another bumper crowd, but also the latest mega music act.

Jess Glynne will be pumping out her string of feel-good hits before kick-off and at half-time - and Quins will latch onto the tempo to quicken the pace of their pre-match warm-up.

This time last year, Quins hosted Exeter at Twickenham and ran through an extended warm-up while Sister Bliss pumped out Faithless hits like Insomnia. Quins seized on the rhythm for a lightning start, going on to thump the Chiefs 40-5 for a crucial victory.

One year on, the west Londoners hope to repeat that feat against Phil Dowson's in-form Saints.
