Leicester Tigers will travel to face Bath Rugby in a top-of-the-table Premiership Rugby matchday 17 fixture on Saturday. Bath, leading the rankings with 66 points, have secured their spot in the playoffs while Leicester Tigers need at least a draw to follow suit. Can the Tigers edge out the league leaders to seal their spot in the last four? Let's take you through our prediction for the match.
Bath's terrific 10-match winning streak came to an end in their last match following a 36-14 away loss to Bristol Bears. They will aim to bounce back to winning ways on Saturday against Leicester Tigers.
The Somerset-based outfit boasts an impressive home record this season, winning 13 of their 15 home matches. This includes a remarkable nine-match winning streak, the most recent being a 55-19 thrashing of Newcastle Falcons.
Unlike Bath, Leicester Tigers are still fighting for a place in the top four. They are in fine form heading into this match. Michael Cheika's side defeated Sale Sharks 44-34 in their last match to extend their winning run to three matches. However, they struggled away from home, losing five of their last nine away fixtures.
