Bulls vs Benetton Predictions


This game has a history of being quite high scoring with the Bulls coming out on top on the last three occasions. I am backing the Bulls to cover the -19 handicap at home.

Head to Head


These two met less than a month ago in the round robin stage in Pretoria. The Bulls comfortably won the match 56-35.

Bulls Form


Bulls finished second on the URC table, winning 13 of their 18 games. They ended just two points off Munster at the top.

The Pretoria-based outfit has been solid all season, particularly at home. Other than Munster, no one has managed a win at Loftus Versfeld.

Last week the Bulls beat the newly crowned Challenge Cup champions, the Sharks 26-14 in Durban. Prior to that, the Bulls beat Benetton, Glasgow and Ospreys at home.

Bulls Injuries & Team News


Jake White has selected a strong side for this quarter-final encounter.

Benetton Form


Benetton made a flying start to the URC but slowly drifted down the table. Still, their seventh-place finish is rather impressive.

The Italian side lost the Challenge Cup semi-final to Gloucester away at the start of May. They followed it up with a superb 25-24 win over the Sharks in Durban.

A week later, the Bulls ran riot, winning 56-35 at home against Benetton. Last week, in a must win game, Benetton were too good at home for Edinburgh, winning 31-6.

Benetton Injuries & Team News


Benetton will put out a similar side to the one that played last weekend. They have had a lot of traveling in recent weeks which could cause a problem.

Verdict

The Bulls are tipped to cover the -19 handicap at home.
