The battle for Pool A’s second semifinal berth comes to a head as Bath Rugby host Gloucester Rugby on Saturday at Recreation Ground. Bath are third in the pool with 21 points, while Gloucester are second on 24 points. Who is likely to secure victory? Here is our prediction.
Bath suffered a 31–19 defeat to pool leaders Exeter Chiefs in their last Premiership Cup match. That result marked their third defeat in the pool and dealt a blow to their semi-final hopes.
This is a must-win match for the defending champions if they are to qualify for the next round. They have won six of their last seven matches overall and secured victories in eight of their last nine home matches.
Gloucester Rugby won their last match, defeating Sale Sharks 43–17 to secure a three-point cushion over Bath in the race for a top-two finish. However, they must avoid defeat at Recreation Ground on Saturday, as it would knock them out of the race and end their campaign in the pool stage.
George Skivington’s side have lost eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions, including defeats in five of their last six away matches. Eight of their last nine meetings with Bath have ended in defeat, six of which by double digits.

Our Bath Rugby vs Gloucester Rugby Prediction
We expect an intriguing contest as the two sides battle for Pool A's final semi-final berth. However, Bath Rugby are the overwhelming favourites to secure victory given their superior recent form and a solid run of performances at Recreation Ground this season.
While Gloucester Rugby have had an impressive Premiership Cup campaign, they have struggled in their recent games overall. Moreover, they have incurred mostly wide-margin defeats in their away games and this contest is unlikely to be any different. Our Bath Rugby vs Gloucester Rugby prediction is Bath Rugby –15.5 handicap.
