Expert Betting Tips
Gloucester have never been too poor in this fixture compared to the last time they faced Saracens. While the visitors are starting to get to their best following impressive back-to-back strong performances, I am not actually in support of backing Saracens, looking at the difference in odds here. Rather, I feel this will be a tight game, and both sides will rather rely on defensive play, with visiting Gloucester covering the gap.
