Exeter Chiefs vs Cornish Pirates Prediction: An easy fixture for the Chiefs

At Sandy Park, Exeter Chiefs will play Cornish Pirates in the English Premiership Rugby. The two teams head into this game with confidence, hoping to secure a win. How will this game unfold? I preview this game and offer predictions below.

Exeter Chiefs

Exeter Chiefs played Hartpury University in their last Premiership Rugby encounter and won. In a 14-36 encounter, Exeter Chiefs started their campaign with a 7-19 win before winning 7-17 in the second half. However, Exeter Chiefs have won their last two matches, having defeated Saracens in a prior league game. Yet, Exeter Chiefs have struggled so much in recent games, winning only three of their last ten matches. At home, Exeter Chiefs have won three and lost three of their last five games.

Cornish Pirates

Cornish Pirates last encounter in the Premiership Rugby ended in a 19-26 encounter against Gloucester. In that encounter, this team gave their all in both halves but was outsmarted by Gloucester’s brilliance. In the meantime, Cornish Pirates have now lost their last three matches, the first two against Ealing Trailfinders and Hartpury University. Ahead of this game, Cornish Pirates have not won any of their meetings against Exeter Chiefs, losing 38-12 and 7-68.
