Bordeaux Begles vs Leicester Tigers Prediction: Tigers have a good chance despite being underdogs

Stade Chaban-Delmas will host the European Rugby Championship Cup encounter between Bordeaux Begles and Leicester Tiger🌱s. Begles have not won in this fixture. How will the Tigers approach this game?

Bordeaux Begles

Bordeaux Begles' last encounter was in November, and they won 9-6. Bordeaux Begles had a strong start in that game, winning 3-0. However, a 6-6 draw in the second half was enough to see💙 them win. Heading into this game, Bordeaux Begles have won three of their last five, defeating Section Paloise and Vannes, ending 19-6 and 29-37. However, their encounters against Stade Rochelais and Clermont ended in defeats. 

Leicester Tigers

Leicester Tigers' last encounter was in the league, losing 39-25. In that encounter, Leicester Tigers lost 12-11 in the first half, but their poor second-half performance saw them lose 27-14. However, the road team has lꦐost three of their last five matches, two against Northampton Saints and Coventry R.F.C. However, their best results in that run of games were against Saracens and Nottingham, which ended 29-32 and 29-70. 

Expert Betting Tips

The Bordeaux Begles have been very brilliant, but the Leicester Tigers have not been too poor. While the home team is heavily favoured, I expect Leicester Tigers to do better defensively, closing the odds so well. Take the Tigers to get within the odds, a game where we should🅰 expect few points.
