Scarlets vs Stormers Predictions

The Stormers are favourites heading into this clash with a 1.5 handicap. However, the hosts have won their last six in front of their home fans while the Stormers have lost four of their last five fixtures. I’m backing a home win.

Scarlets have won their last 6 home matches.
Stormers have lost 4 of their last 5 matches.

Head to Head

Stormers thrashed Scarlets 52-7 at home when they last met in 2023.

Scarlets Form

The Scarlets are currently 10th in the URC after 12 games. They have won five, drawn one and lost six.

In their last three URC games, Scarlets beat Edinburgh 30-24 at home, lost 29-18 at Munster and went down 30-28 at Ulster.

The Scarlets have won their last six home games which will be a confidence booster for them.

Scarlets Injuries & Team News

The Scarlets have some internationals returning after the Six Nations, but they will be eased back into action.

Stormers Form

The Stormers have struggled to get any momentum this season and sit in 12th place. They are not out of the running for a top eight finish, not by a long shot, but they will need an improvement in consistency for the rest of the season.

In all competitions, the Stormers have lost four of their last five matches. Their sole win came in an upset, beating the Bulls 19-16 at Loftus at the start of March.

John Dobson’s side is under huge pressure given the rugby they’ve played this season with supporters not happy and already questioning the coach that led them to the URC title and runners-up medal not long ago.

Stormers Injuries & Team News

The Stormers have plenty of talent from which to pick but their forwards have not asserted much dominance this season. That has been their downfall, along with a seemingly non-existent game plan.

Verdict

Scarlets v Stormers

The Scarlets are backed to beat the Stormers on home soil.
