Jack Nowell is winning his fitness battle in time for the final stage of Exeter’s bid to be crowned European and English champions.

A foot injury sustained against Toulouse on September 26 ruled Nowell out of last weekend’s demolition of Bath in the Gallagher Premiership play-off but the tackle-busting Lions wing has resumed training.
