Bath vs Bristol Prediction: Underdogs Bath has no chance of winning

Bristol will travel to play Bath in the round three match of the Premiership Rugby Cup. Both teams lost their first matches and this will be a chance of getting themselves prepared for the playoffs. We give details of the two teams and what the match outcome is expected to be. 

Bath - home team have a lot of defensive work to do

Bath’s performance this season has been a total failure. The home team has lost their last eight matches and things seem not to be going in their way. Their last win was against London Irish in a close 27-24 contest. Looking at how their performance has been poor and their losing differences in each match, Bath definitely will have a lot of defensive commitments to do. However, lot of defensive plays could mean they will find troubles moving forward and attacking from sides which will limit their chances of getting a surprise win. 

Bristol - huge favorites to win

Despite being one point ahead of Bath in the Group 1 of the Premiership Rugby Cup standings, Bath is seated third in the standings. The visitors are placed as favorite to win this match but their recent overall performances could be proving things wrong as they have lost four of their last five matches to Exeter Chiefs twice, Newcastle Falcons, and Gloucester coming from their last weekend matchup. Their last win however was against London Irish. In this match however, Bristol will look to rely on their past winnings over the Bath.
