Bath Rugby vs Leinster Rugby Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions Cup

Bath didn't start their Champions Cup campaign last week after their match in Toulon was postponed due to the attacks in Paris. Leinster did play and probably wish they hadn't as they went down to their heaviest home defeat in the tournament as they went down 33-6 at home to Wasps. That's a terrible start for the Irish side who have won this competition on three previous occasions. Recently they have also lost away in the Pro 12 to both Scarlets and Edinburgh so they could be heading for a second straight defeat in the Champions Cup.  Bath have won two and los two of their Aviva Premiership matches and had a convincing 45-14 win over London Irish in their last match a fortnight ago. That postponement in France means Bath come into this game nicely rested and that could be a big bonus for them. I go for a Bath win here that will give Leinster a few problems if they want to progress to the knock-out stages.
