Leicester Tigers welcome Ulster to the Mattioli Woods Welford Road in Saturday’s Champions Cup late kickoff match. The Tigers and the Ulstermen will face off, looking to add some consistency to their game. Below is our prediction for the match.
Leicester Tigers will head into the clash confident, coming from a 28-15 win over Exeter Chiefs. This, however, came off the back of a draw with Harlequins and a loss to Bristol.
In the Champions Cup, the same inconsistencies have plagued Michael Cheika’s men with a loss and win being their record. They opened their European rugby campaign with a 42-28 loss to Bordeaux Begles but recovered to thump Sharks 56-17.
Ulster managed to halt their five-game losing streak against Connacht last time out. This string of results has also seen them fail to win a single game in the Champions Cup this season and they sit bottom.
They kicked off their European rugby season with a heavy 61-21 loss to reigning champions Stade Toulousain. This was followed up with another 19-40 hammer blow against Bordeaux Begles.
The heavy losses leave them with the unwanted record of having the second-worst defense in the competition that has soaked in 101 points. Their away form is also alarming, having won just one of their last seven games.

Our Leicester Tigers vs Ulster Rugby Prediction
Leicester Tigers will be glad to return to Mattioli Woods Welford Road where they have won two of their last three games. Their most recent game will also inspire confidence after beating Exeter Chiefs 28-15 which was also coincidentally at home.
In contrast, Ulster’s away form has them on only one win in their last seven games. Their overall form is also poor having won just one of their last six games in all competitions. Our prediction for Leicester Tigers vs Ulster is a Leicester Tigers -14 handicap.
