Sale Sharks vs Bath Prediction: Bath remain unstoppable

Sale Sharks

Sale Sharks are coming off a European Rugby Champions Cup against RC Toulonnais, which ended 33-7. In that encounter, the Sale Sharks had a solid start, which led to them leading 7-0 at halftime. However, a 26-7 lead in the second half was enough to see the team win full-time. In the meantime, prior encounters to that victory saw this team lose to Stormers and Gloucester in games that ended 40-0 and 36-20, respectively. In the league this season, Sale Sharks have played ten games and accumulated 29 points. The home team sits 7th, scoring 267 goals and conceding 251. 

Bath

Bath are coming off a defeat to Leinster in the European Rugby Championship Cup, which ended 47-21. In the meantime, that was Bath’s second defeat in their last three matches, the first against Northampton Saints in the league. However, the visiting team's encounters against Newcastle Falcons, Saracens, and Clermont in recent fixtures ended in victories. Bath head into this game with a strong league record this season, accumulating 41 points from ten games. The road team sits at the top of the standings with six points clear of their closest rivals.

Expert Betting Tips

Regardless of how good the Sale Sharks have been lately, I still do not see them winning here. Visiting Bath have been very consistent and is just an unbeatable side with a lot of quality. However, while I expect a tough contest, I still believe that Bath’s squad will win this game for them.
