Bordeaux Bègles host Ulster in this 2024-25 European Rugby Champions Cup round-of-16 fixture on Sunday. The winner of this match will face either Stade Rochelais or Munster in the last-8. Can Les Girondins edge out the Ulstermen to secure a spot in the quarterfinals? Let's take you through our prediction for the match.

Bordeaux Bègles lost 36-31 away to Racing 92 in their last match. This result marked their third defeat in six matches and ended their three-match winning streak on the domestic scene. 

However, they have been formidable at home, winning 11 of their 12 matches this season. This includes European Rugby Champions Cup victories against Leicester Tigers (42-28) and Sharks (66-12). Yannick Bru's side will aim to secure their 12th home win and book a place in the last-8 of the Champions Cup on Sunday.

Ulster extended their winning run to three matches with a 38-34 home league victory over Stormers in their last match. However, they have struggled on the road this season, losing eight of their 10 away dating fixtures back to last season. This includes heavy European Rugby Champions Cup defeats against Stade Toulousain (61-21) and Leicester Tigers (38-10).
