- Currie Cup R5: Bulls 21-42 Griquas
- Currie Cup R4: Boland Cavaliers 28-20 Bulls
The Bulls emerged victorious in their last game against the Ospreys, extending their winning run to two. Specifically, this team showed an excellent comeback, considering they lost the first half of the game 19-26. Nevertheless, coming into the second half, they make their fans happy as they bang a massive 34-14 in the half to take the victory in their home. Notwithstanding their recent winning form of two games in a row, this team has not been in excellent form; in truth, no one forgets a storm that has once occurred, as they lost four games in a row before winning twice against the Cheetahs and the Ospreys. Besides, this team's defensive line has not been performing well, as they have conceded 31 points or more in their last four games

Leinster had a disappointing result in their first game of the season, not only losing to the Stormers but also failing to secure a point. Nevertheless, this loss doesn’t take away their good form, considering they have won five of their last six games, starting with the Zebra, the Scarlets, the Bulls, and twice against the Glasgow Warriors. In addition, these games have seen them concede no more than 21 points. In fact, they conceded five points against the Zebra and Glasgow Warriors, and seven points against the Bulls, showcasing their defensive prowess. In terms of getting points, they have gotten over 30 points in three of their last four games.

Bulls vs Leinster Match Prediction
Although it’s hard to back the Bulls in this game, I think they will win because they have shown excellence in winning their last two games, and this cannot be said for Leinster. Moreover, the Bulls have won two of their previous three head-to-head games against Leinster showing they understand how to play this Leinster team. Also, these two sides are evenly matched, and I think this will be reflected in the scoreline of this game, because the last three head-to-head games between the two sides saw even results.
Our match prediction: Handicap (-7.5) for the Bulls for a coefficient of 1.90 in the Bet365 bookmaker.
Our betting tip: An even scoreline here for a coefficient of 1.83 in the 1xbet bookmaker.
Our final betting tip: The Bulls will win first and then full-time for a coefficient of 1.66 in the Betway bookmaker.
