Exeter Chiefs are having a miserable season both in the English Premiership and in this European Rugby Champions Cup. They are fifth in Pool 1 and this Saturday are home to second-placed Bordeaux Begles. Read our match prediction below.
The home side have only Ulster below them in the pool with two matches remaining and they play them away in their final match. Exeter are five points behind Sharks who occupy the final qualifying position for the knockout stages.
Exeter (who are one from bottom in the English Premiership) have so far lost at Sharks and were then beaten 64-21 at home by pool leaders Toulouse.
Bordeaux Begles are second in the pool, behind Toulouse on points difference. They have won both of their pool matches with a home win over Leicester Tigers and a 40-19 win in Ulster. The Begles are the current Top 14 leaders with 11 of their 14 matches won, the other three being lost.
Four of their seven away league games have been won this season. They come into this match in excellent form having won each of their last seven matches. The most recent win saw them beat Clermont 32-27.
We tip Bordeaux Begles to win this match and defy a -19.5 points handicap.
