With the Six Nations almost upon us, the top teams in England are playing in the Rugby Premiership Cup. Newcastle Red Bulls are home to Saracens in Pool B and both clubs still have high hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages. Read our match prediction below.
Top of this pool are Leicester Tigers with 18 points and they have a seven point lead over Newcastle and Saracens. Northampton are in fourth a further point behind with Harlequins languishing in bottom place without a point to their name. The top two qualify for the knockout stages.
Newcastle Red Bulls are rock bottom of PREM Rugby with just one win. This cup competition is notable for the fact that a lot of the top players are on international duty so check the team line-ups.
The Red Bulls have so far won two matches in this pool and lost the other couple of fixtures. Wins came at home to Harlequins and away at Northampton Saints. Their two losses were at Leicester Tigers and 43-0 in the reverse fixture at Saracens.
Saracens lost their opening two pool fixtures before defeating Harlequins and Newcastle. Last week saw them beat Newcastle 73-14 at home. A much changed side will be taking on Newcastle here and we tip the Red Bulls on a +12.5 handicap.

Our Newcastle Red Bulls vs Saracens FC Prediction
Team selection is so important in this competition. The mere fact that Newcastle have won away at Northampton illustrates that point perfectly. Newcastle are bottom of PREM Rugby with Northampton top. Those sides who have top internationals in their squad will be missing them here.
Saracens have had two big wins over Newcastle this season. Both were played on home soil and they are not so impressive on the road even when their top players are available. Our Newcastle Red Bulls v Saracens prediction is Newcastle Rd Bulls wins on a +12.5 handicap.
