Scarlets are taking on Leinster at the Parc y Scarlets in the World United Rugby Championship on the 26th of April 2025. Scarlets have lost four of their last six games, winning only twice, while Leinster are unbeaten in their previous four matches, having won all four. Additionally, they have been unbeaten in their last five head-to-head games against Scarlets. I will take a proper look at the preview of this game and offer free betting opportunities.
