Matchday 14 in Premiership Rugby will see second-placed Bristol Bears play host to third-placed Leicester Tigers on Sunday at the Ashton Gate Stadium. This match will go a long way to determine the fate of the two teams in the race for semi-final playoff finish. Can the Bears see off the Tigers to strengthen their bid for a top-four finish? Follow our prediction for the match below.
Bristol Bears missed a chance to open a nine-point gap over third-placed Leicester Tigers following a heavy 53-28 away loss to fourth-placed Gloucester in their last match. This result marked their second defeat in their last six matches.
However, Pat Lam's side have been on an impressive run at home lately. They have won their last four home fixtures, three of which by more than 13 points.
Leicester Tigers will enter this match still nursing the shock of a disappointing Champions Cup campaign. They crashed out in the round of 16 of the competition following a thumping 43-19 away loss to Glasgow Warriors in their most recent game. Notably, Michael Cheika's side are just two points away from 5th-placed Sale Sharks. A win on Sunday could cushion their bid for a top-four finish by a six-point gap.
