Expert Betting Tips

Leicester Tigers have been disappointing in recent games, and coming into this one on the road is not the best for them. On the other hand, Northampton Saints are the hottest side in the league right now, and they remain unbeatable. While the Leicester Tigers have yet to show promising performance in recent games, I expect the trend of dominant play to shift from here. Hence, a good margin win this time for the Saints in what will be a high-scoring game.
