Big Game 6: Harlequins v Exeter Chiefs, December 28.

After you have eaten several times your body weight over Christmas, an afternoon trip to the rugby could be the perfect way to get the adrenaline pumping again. Twickenham started life as a cabbage patch but these days the 82,000-seat stadium is one of the most iconic sporting venues in the country. Harlequins stars like flanker Chris Robshaw and fly-half Nick Evans will need to control their Christmas excesses to beat the Exeter Chiefs who, at the time of writing, were sitting just below them in the league.

With the Ashes taking place in the dead of night for Londoners, those who want to adopt a normal sleeping pattern will find cricket out of bounds this Christmas. But if must have your sporting fix, several events over the next month promise to provide plenty of bangs for your buck.
