Newcastle Falcons vs Leicester Tigers Prediction & Betting Tips - English Premiership Rugby
by Devesh Jaganath | in Rugby Predictions
The Newcastle Falcons will be hosting Leicester Tigers this weekend at Kingston Park in round three of the Gallagher Premiership. The Falcons have yet to earn their first point of the season and are rooted to the bottom of the league, while the Tigers are in sixth position with five points. Check our match prediction below.
The Falcons underperformed once again when they faced Harlequins last week, only managing to score just half of what their opponents achieved in a 28-14 loss.
That would prove to be their ninth consecutive loss in all competitions with their last win coming in January of this year against French side USA Perpignan.
Meanwhile, at home, the team from Newcastle faces an even worse history as they will have to look back to October 2023 for their last win, a 12-match streak without victory.
The Tigers, on the other hand, will take some positives from the last match when they faced Bath Rugby where they had limited the difference to just five points.
However, with two wins from their last three matches, Leicester will still head into this match with a decent level of confidence.
Adding to that confidence would be the positive 17-14 result that the Tigers had earned last time on the road against Exeter.

Our Newcastle Falcons vs Leicester Tigers Prediction
Newcastle will enter another week hoping for an improvement that seems unlikely to appear, while Leicester will look at this match as a prime opportunity to move up the table and earn maximum points.
The Falcons will hope to put up a fight and keep a respectable scoreline but the Tigers will be on the hunt and we feel the visitors will come away with the W. Our Newcastle Falcons vs Leicester Tigers prediction: Leicester Tigers -5.5!
