Scarlets vs Leinster Prediction: Scarlets will struggle once again

League leaders Leinster will travel to Parc y Scarlets to play their week 7 match of the United Rugby Championship against the Scarlets.

Since the beginning of this season, the Scarlets have been performing extremely poorly overall. The season's opening matches ended with the home team losing four, drawing one, and winning one of the contests. During the 2022/2023 season of the United Rugby Championship, the Scarlets allowed their opponents to score 176 goals while only scoring 145. They have six points, which ranks them 15th in the league.

Leinster will look to extend their winning streak against the Scarlets in this match. Last week against Munster, Leinster had a masterclass performance, winning both the first and second half of that match. Sexton was again fantastic to watch in that match, having a good conversion rate and a penalty goal. In this match, Leinster will be playing with a lot of confidence as they look to extend their winning streak and remain strong in the league’s top spot.

The Scarlets has just a win against Leinster in their last five matches dating to 2018. With the home team’s form being below par, we expect the visitors to get an easy win.
