Bath vs Newcastle Falcons: Prediction and odds on the Match on 26 April 2025

Bath and Newcastle Falcons will battle it out in the England Premiership Rugby on Saturday, 26 April 2025, at Recreation Ground. Newcastle Falcons have lost their last four games, while Bath have been unbeaten in eight games. Can they continue their unbeaten run here? I will take a proper look at the preview of this game and offer free betting opportunities.

Bath: Form and Statistics

Bath secured a 24-26 tight win in their last match against Exeter Chiefs. Moreover, twenty-four goals have been the lowest score they have recorded in a match since their winning run began, which has now extended to eight. Their prior game against Gloucester in the Challenge Cup Play-Offs resulted in a victory, which saw them book a spot in the semi-final. In fact, Bath have been the best team at their home stadium this season in the league, as they have won six of their seven games. In the span, their lone defeat was against Bristol Bears in a round three fixture which ended 26-36. They are seated at the top of the league standings with 61 points from 14 games, a distance of 15 points ahead of the second-placed Leicester Tigers.

Bath Lineup

Bath will go again with the line-up and same pattern to continue their unbeaten run. Tom Dunn, Beno Obano, Will Stuart, Ross Molony, Ted Hill, Louis Schreuder, Orlando Bailey, and Alfie Barbeary will remain as replacements.

Bath Expected Lineup

Francois van Wyk, Niall Annett, Thomas du Toit, Ewan Richards, Charlie Ewels, Josh Bayliss, Miles Reid, Arthur Green, Ben Spencer, Finn Russell, Will Muir, Cameron Redpath, Max Ojomoh, Ruaridh McConnochie, Tom de Glanville

Newcastle Falcons: Form and Statistics

Newcastle Falcons suffered a 34-35 painful loss in their last game against Northampton Saints. However, that result extended the Falcons losing streak to four, having played Bath 29-41, Sale Sharks 15-39, and Exeter Chiefs 17-15 in prior encounters. However, their previous two losses have been close in scorelines, 17-15 and 34-35. They have not won any games from an away ground since the start of the season, having lost six in a row. They are seated last in the league standings with 12 points from 14 games.

Newcastle Falcons Lineup

Murray McCallum has returned to the team squad since Friday, with Sam Stuart also returning in the last game, having suffered a hamstring strain, and is set to play at scrum-half as a replacement for Joe Davis again. Finn Baker, who made his debut in the last match, will also feature here again. Max Pepper will also play from the sub again, having returned from injury in the previous game to recover better from a head knock.

Bath are the best team here, and they are expected to win looking at the quality in their squad and how poor the Falcons have been all season. Bath have won the majority of their matches with a convincing gap and with Newcastle Falcons struggling defence, I do not see them going head-to-head. Finally, Bath have scored 26 goals in their previous two games, with each game ending in an even scoreline. This clash will end up in an even scoreline, and for Bath, too.
