Claim Your Welcome Bonus!Northampton Saints - a home advantage boost for the host
Northampton has two points in one match played in the English Premiership Rugby Cup. The host lost 28-26 to London Irish in their first round match. In that match, Northampton enjoyed a perfect 0-19 win in the first half. However, their poor play in the second half, coupled with poor defensive ability denied them of what could have been their first win this season. The host team now sits 3rd in Group Three of the English Premiership Cup table. We expect Northampton Saints to come into this match with a wn mentality.
Saracens - hopeful to get second consecutive wins
Saracens will hope to extend their winning streak to four in five matches when they travel to Franklin’s Stadium in Northampton. With one match played in the English Premiership Rugby Cup, Saracens will look to build on their last weekend win over Leicester Tigers. The visitors will look to take advantage of a poor Northampton Saint who has only recorded just one win in their last five matches in all competitions.
