Mark McCall expects his side to complete the job this weekend as they look to seal a home quarter-final in the Heineken Cup.

The Men in Black only need one point from their trip to Treviso on Sunday but know they will need a win to have a chance of home advantage in the next round.

Sarries beat Biarritz 20-16 on Sunday but the slender margin of victory means they can still mathematically be caught if they slip up in Italy.

Sarries director of rugby McCall said: “We’re not quite qualified yet as you know. That will definitely focus the mind for next weekend.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen in France but it’s very important we’re very professional with our preparation for this game.

“I don’t know the maths, whether a victory guarantees us a home quarter-final but we’ll be going out there to get the win.”
