Union Bordeaux Begles vs Sharks Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in Champions Cup Predictions
Bordeaux can win pool 1 of the European Rugby Champions Cup with a home win over Sharks. They are a point clear with this final match to come, while Sharks are in fourth place. Here’s our match prediction.
The Begles lead this pool by a point from holders Stade Toulousain who host Leicester Tigers later on Sunday. Their place in the last 16 is already confirmed and with a home draw. All three of their pool matches have been won with 151 points scored.
They are also the Top 14 leaders and owe that to winning all seven of their home league games. Last weekend’s 69-17 win at Exeter Chiefs was their eighth successive victory.
Sharks are in the final qualifying position with five points from three games. They are five points clear of Ulster and Exeter Chiefs (who face each other earlier in the day) and have a far superior points difference.
The South African side have only beaten Exeter so far in this pool and last weekend lost at Stade Toulousain. They are fifth in the United Rugby Championship with three of their four away games lost.
We go for Bordeaux to continue their excellent home record and win this, defying a -23.5 point handicap.
