Bordeaux Begles are two wins away from retaining the European Rugby Champions Cup. The top seeds in the knockout stages are home to fourth-seeded Bath this weekend. Can the Begles get another home win? More information in our match prediction below.
The winners of this match will be up against either Leinster or RC Toulon in the final.
Bordeaux Begles have been highly impressive in their defence of the ERCC. They won their pool with four straight wins and have since beaten Leicester Tigers and Top 14 leaders Stade Toulousain at home in the knockout stages.
267 points have been scored in their six matches in this season's European Rugby Champions Cup. They are sixth in Top 14 this season and have an 8-0-3 home record. Four of their last five at home have been won.
Bath won last season's European Challenge Cup after failing to get out of the ERCC pool stages. They made no mistake this season and finished top of pool 2 but did lose away at RC Toulon.
In the knockout stages, the English club have beaten Saracens and Northampton Saints at home but only by a combined margin of 11 points. Three of their last four away games have been lost. We tip Bordeaux to win on a -6.5 handicap.
