Northampton Saints vs Saracens Prediction: A high-scoring game ahead

Northampton Saints and Saracens will battle it out in the playoff semifinal action of Premiership Rugby. The Saints are favorites here, while Saracens are underdogs. Which team makes it to the fin꧂al?

Northampton Saints will look to display superiority in this semifinal action, having finished the season with 60 points. In their season performance, this team scored 555 goals while conceding 453. In their recent matches, the Northampton Saints lost to Leinster in the final of the European Rugby Champions Cup. However, their league games against Leicester Tigers and Gloucester ended in victories, and they also lost to Harlequins and Bath in that same run.

Saracens will have to show what they are up to in this semifinal action, having come into this game as underdogs. In their overall season performance, this team finished 4th in the standings with 56 points. However, Saracens scored 522 goals while conceding 387. Looking at their last matches into this playoffs, Saracens lost to Bordeaux Begles in the European Rugby Champions Cup playoffs in a 45-12 encounter. However, Saracens were able to secure wins over Gloucester, Bath, and Bristol in league encounters, while they lost to Sale Sharks in one other game. 

I am betting on points here. These two teams have had wonderful performances on the offensive side of the game, and I expect more from them here. Also, Northampton Saints have the better team here, and looking at how they were defea♊ted by Leinster in the European Champions Cup, I do not see this team struggling in this one either.
