Sale Sharks vs Harlequins FC Prediction & Betting Tips - English Premiership Rugby
by Devesh Jaganath | in Rugby Predictions
Round one of the Gallagher Premiership will draw to a close on Sunday afternoon when the Sale Sharks will welcome the Harlequins to Salford Community Stadium. The Sharks will hope to emulate their winning 37-31 performance when these two sides last clashed, but The Quins will call upon their penultimate performance when they came out on top 36-3. Let's dive into this match prediction.
A third-place finish in the league last season meant that the Sharks would face Bath Rugby in the semi-finals, but while they managed to produce a spirited performance, they ultimately fell to last year's runners-up.
This proved to be the only blemish on their past five matches as four of them had resulted in Sale being the victors.
However, the Sharks did boast the joint-best home record of last season, seeing defeat only once when in Salford.
The Entertainers, on the other hand, seemed to be in good stead to close their season on a positive note, yet somehow lost the plot in the 59th minute when they conceded a shocking 24 points to the Bears without reply.
That loss pretty much summed up their recent form of four losses out of five matches across all competitions, yet to the shock of everyone, that sole win came against the champions Northampton.
Meanwhile, the same form of four losses in their last five matches is noted when The Quins are travelling.
