Northampton Saints Preview – Can Saints stop the Tigers?

It has been a good solid campaign in Premiership Rugby by Northampton who have posted a W4 L1 record.

They were on fire last weekend as they powered their way to a 66-10 win at home over Worcester.

That’s three wins from three on home turf for them in this campaign.

Northampton’s only blip on their record for the season was a six-point defeat away at Wasps.

In the match outright for Premiership rugby betting, Northampton are 13/10 underdogs* (odds recorded 20:01 GMT on October 28th, 2021).

Northampton are on a three-match winning streak at Franklin’s Gardens in the Premiership.

That has been their best return of home form since 2019.

There is also some big head to head form that the Saints have at the moment against Leicester Tigers.

Northampton have claimed a win in five of their last seven Premiership matches against the Tigers (L2).

* (odds recorded 20:01 GMT on October 28th, 2021)

 

Northampton’s home successes this season have been against London Irish and then Worcester.

They tallied up 10 tries against the Warriors.

The Northampton Saints +3 handicap is at a quote of 10/11 in Premiership Rugby betting* (odds recorded 20:01 GMT on October 28th, 2021).

In each of their fixtures this season, Northampton have produced 20+ points.

So that should keep them in this one.

 

Leicester Tigers Preview – Seven from seven for the Tigers?

Leicester Tigers are setting a very strong early pace in the Premiership Rugby having won five from five.

They have been both powerful and efficient in picking up those wins.

As of the end of last weekend, Leicester Tigers are averaging 28 points per league game this season.

That is the lowest points-per-game average of the current top four in the Premiership.

But they have found ways to win and there have been some excellent defensive displays.

Only in two of their five Premiership Rugby matches this season have Leicester conceded more than 12 points.

There is a quote of 4/6 odds-on for them in the match outright* (odds recorded 20:01 GMT on October 28th, 2021).

Last weekend the Tigers held out at home to claim a 19-11 win over Sale.

Including form from the end of last season, that is a seven-match Premiership winning streak that Leicester are currently on.

Leicester have brought a bigger kicking game to the table for this campaign.

Can they extend this impressive winning streak?

  • Northampton Saints have won their last three home games.
  • Leicester Tigers are on a seven match winning streak in the top flight

 

Leicester Tigers have won away at Worcester and London Irish this season, the two teams that Northampton have beaten in their home campaign.
