The 2018–19 Gallagher Premiership was the 32nd season of the top flight English domestic rugby union competition and the first one to be sponsored by Gallagher.[1] The reigning champions entering the season were Saracens, who had claimed their fourth title after defeating Exeter Chiefs in the 2018 final. Bristol Bears had been promoted as champions from the 2017–18 RFU Championship at the first attempt.

The competition was broadcast by BT Sport for the sixth successive season and with five games also simulcast free-to-air on Channel 5. Highlights of each weekend's games were shown on Channel 5 with extended highlights on BT Sport.

Summary

Saracens won their fifth title after defeating Exeter Chiefs in the final at Twickenham after having finished second in the regular season table. Newcastle Falcons were relegated after being unable to win their penultimate game of the season. It was the third time that Newcastle have been relegated from the top flight since the leagues began and the first time since the 2011–12 Premiership Rugby season.

For the first time since 2004, there was no London Double Header at Twickenham due to redevelopment work causing the closure of the stadium.

Teams

Twelve teams compete in the league – the top eleven teams from the previous season and Bristol Bears who were promoted from the 2017–18 RFU Championship after a top flight absence of one year. They replaced London Irish who were relegated after one year in the top flight.

Fixtures

Fixtures for the season were announced by Premiership Rugby on 6 July 2018. Due to redevelopment work causing the closure of Twickenham Stadium, round 1 did not include the London Double Header.

Despite a four-year deal being struck in 2016, no matches took place in the United States. It had previously been reported that Sale Sharks vs Harlequins in round 18 would take place at Toyota Park just outside Chicago, Illinois.[4] However, the round 6 match between Harlequins and Saracens was broadcast live in the US on a major network with NBC as opposed to NBCSN broadcasting for the first time.[5]

All fixtures are subject to change.

Highlights of the season include:

  • The Derby — Northampton Saints vs Leicester Tigers at Twickenham on 6 October
  • Big Game 11 — Harlequins will host Wasps in this season's edition of the Big Game at Twickenham on 29 December.
  • Derby Day Saracens vs Harlequins at London Stadium on 23 March.
  • The Big One Newcastle Falcons vs Sale Sharks at St James' Park on 23 March
  • The Clash — Bath Rugby will return to Twickenham on 6 April. This year's opponent will be fellow West Country rivals Bristol Bears.
