The home side are a place and seven points behind the final play-off position. Last week saw them beaten 59-26 at Stade Toulousain in the European Rugby Champions Cup quarter-finals.ar That was their seventh successive league and cup loss.
In PREM Rugby, they have been beaten in their last two games, away at LeicesterTigers and at home to Harlequins. However, the game against Quins was played in Cardiff. ristol have won their five other home league games that were actually played in Bristol.
Gloucester are eighth in the table and that is the final ERCC qualifying position. They are only a point above Harlequins who they beat in their last away league game. That is their only away victory in PREM Rugby this season, the other five games all ending in defeat.
Their most recent match saw them beaten 36-17 at home by Leicester Tigers. Two of their last three games have been lost. The same stat applies to their last three away league games. We tip Bristol to win on a -9.5 handicap.
