Glasgow Warriors will trade tackles with Leicester Tigers in this 2024-25 European Rugby Champions Cup round-of-16 fixture on Saturday. The winner of this match will face either Leinster or Harlequins in the quarterfinals. Can the reigning United Rugby Championship winners defeat the Tigers to qualify for the last-8? Here is our prediction for the match.

Glasgow Warriors extended their winning run to two matches with a shutout 42-0 victory over Lions in their last match. This result saw the team rack up their fourth win in five matches. 

Also, Franco Smith's side boasts an impressive home record this season. They have won nine of their 10 home fixtures, losing one. This includes an impressive seven-match winning streak, which ended with the narrow defeat to Ospreys.

Leicester Tigers suffered a 29-22 home league defeat against Saracens in their last match. This loss ended an impressive four-match winning streak for Michael Cheika's side, who will aim to return to winning ways on Saturday. 

Notably, the Tigers ended their five-match winless run on the road with back-to-back away league victories against Coventry RFC (68-26) and Northampton Saints (33-0). However, they have lost their two 2024-25 European Champions Cup away matches against Bordeaux Bègles (42-28) and Stade Toulousain (80-12).
