Rebels vs Crusaders Prediction: Crusader are playing better

The next stop on the Super Rugby Pacific schedule is at AAMI Park, where the Rebels will take on the Crusaders. The Crusaders will be looking to make it five victories in a row, while the Rebels are heavy underdogs in this matchup.

Rebels - host team will struggle

The Rebels were dealt yet another devastating setback during the past weekend when they were defeated by the Blues in a match that concluded with a score of 17-54. However, this result was their third defeat in their most recent five matches, with their other two defeats coming at the hands of the Chiefs and the Fijian Drua. During the same time period, the Rebels were also successful against the Waratahs and the Reds. In the seven league matches that have been played so far this season, the Rebels have scored 204 points and given up as many as 270 to their opponents.

Crusaders - heavily favored to win

If they get a victory in this competition, Crusaders will extend their winning streak to five games in a row, including victories against Blues, Brumbies, Reds, and Moana Pacific during the last weekend. Crusaders breezed through their opponent in their most recent encounter, which was played against Moana Pasifika and finished with a score of 38-21. In the game, the Crusaders were down at the halftime break, with a score of 17-21 after the first half. However, things changed around for the Crusaders in the second half, when they completely controlled and dominated en route to a 21-0 score at the halftime break. In spite of the fact that they are the favorites in this place, we are looking forward to seeing them demonstrate their class once again and narrow the gap at the top of the table.
