Northampton Saints were able to achieve their much-sought redemption in the match against Saracens. They won the game with a score margin of 28-24. Trevour Davison has recorded 50 appearances so far in the green and black shirt. They faced their toughest opponent, Leinster, in their pursuit of a spot in the finals of the European Rugby Champions Cup. The match concluded with a scoreline of 34-37. They have shown great attacking spirit to reach this stage, especially with contributions from players like scrum-half Alex Mitchell and flanker Henry Pollock. In their last match, they faced Exeter Chiefs and suffered a loss with a score margin of 42-14. Each of these players brings strong technical abilities to their style of play, forcing their opponents to constantly adjust their game plans. With the team still prone to errors, they will be looking to wear their underdog status with pride.

In the last match, Bordeaux-Bègles played against Castres Olympique and ended in a victory score margin of 34-29. Benjamin Tameifuna transformed into the team-playing master with this perfect fix work to put Matthieu Jalibert into the break. Before this match, they recorded a frustrating defeat to Montpellier, who failed to reverse the trend after a difficult first half (46-27). Bordeaux-Bègles suffered a 10-21 loss to Stade Rochelais, struggling in both halves with 3-8 and 7-13. Players who were able to get some points for the home side are Boniface U, who got the try, and Matthieu Jalibert, who got a conversion goal and a penalty goal. Before that, they were doing a comeback against Section Paloise, who were leading the first half by 9-6. J. Carbery was the player of the game, contributing both penalty and conversion goals. In the 80th minute, Garcia produced a crowd-silencing penalty goal. Pau fought well, but not enough in the end. Bielle-Biarrey is showing his electric pace once again. They won their last challenge of the regular phase after a well-fought match against the Rochelais in Espoirs. They won their ticket to the final stage of this season and faced Castres Olympique in the quarterfinals

Northampton Saints vs Bordeaux-Bègles: Prediction
In Bordeaux-Begles' loss to Montpellier, it was clear that they don't play together, and they certainly don't all have the same appetite at the same time! Given the importance, they were hungry. There is a need for a top-quality alternate fly-half to Jalibert, a top-quality alternate fullback as an alternative to Burros, and top-quality replacements for Tapuai, Uberti, and Tatafu. Northampton Saints have displayed they can handle being in an underdog situation following their 28-24 victory over Saracens. In the last head-to-head, Saracens were ahead with a point difference of four. I believe in this match, the score margin will be close; however, I want to side with the Bordeaux-Bègles to get a win. Not an easy call, as both teams are on a strong side. I will bet on the total points being even.
Our match prediction: is Bordeaux-Bègles total points (even) with odds at 1.833 on 1Xbet bookmaker.
Our betting tip: is Northampton Saints to score first with odds at 3.33 on the Betway bookmaker.
