My Prediction
Bath Rugby by 5In the indomitable words of this great sport, it's game on between Bath Rugby and Harlequin FC. I'm already on the edge of my seat, which is slightly unfortunate given as the match hasn't even started yet. However, I'm a known victim of excessive enthusiasm, what can I say.
Looking at past performances, we've had a bit of a back and forth between our two teams. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry could tell you that Bath Rugby has had the upper hand more often than not, but Harlequin FC has shown they can pack a punch, too. You see, Bath Rugby had the audacity to beat Harlequin FC 45 to 35 back in '23. However, since then, matches have been closely contested, making every pundit scratch their heads.
Our friends at Bath Rugby have shown macadamia nut toughness this season. Their recent prowess is undeniable, with a record of 10 wins and 2 losses. On the other side, Harlequin FC’s record looks like it was done by an abstract artist, with 6 wins, 5 losses, and 1 tie. You’d think they’re playing tic-tac-toe instead of Rugby.
Let's glance over recent results, shall we? Bath Rugby has been on a tear, with some robust victories under their belt, while Harlequin FC has been... well, let's just say they've had a checkered result. I mean, tying with Leicester Tigers does not show a hunger for the win.
As the season stands, Bath Rugby is kneading the rest of the league like dough. Sitting at numero uno. Harlequin FC is stuck wearing the number five jersey in the Premiership.
So, after much contemplation that would make a Zen master envious, I’ll say this. My prediction, while not as guaranteed as a sunrise or taxes, is inclined towards Bath Rugby. They've got the form, the track record, and an overall air of invincibility that's hard to ignore.
