Bath vs Exeter Chiefs Prediction: The visitors will not lose with huge margin

The Recreation Ground will host a round 7 English Premiership game between Bath and Exeter Chiefs. The two teams are coming off a win and will look to extend that run. Which team wins this one?

Bath are coming off a number of strong performances and will look to keep that performance intact. In their last match, this team took on Bedford Blues in the Premiership Cup and secured a 7-21 win. However, that was Bath's sixth win in a row, having defeated Gloucester, Harlequins, Sale Sharks, Ampthill and Bristol in that run. In fact, Bath lost only once in their last eight games. This season in the league, the home team has 25 points from six matches, and a win in this game will take them top of the standings. 

Exeter Chiefs are coming off consecutive victories and will look to replicate that in the league. Last time out, this team played Gloucester in the Premiership Cup and pulled off a 7-31 win, thanks to a dominant first half which ended 0-31. However, prior encounters in that Premiership Cup saw Exeter Chiefs defeat Cornish Pirates and Hartpury University, games that ended 7-68 and 54-3, respectively. In the meantime, Exeter Chiefs league games have not ended with positive outcomes, losing their last five. In the standings, this team sits in the bottom spot with five points, scoring 124 goals and conceding 176. 

Bath are well favoured at home, and it is understood, looking at their prowess attack ahead of this game. However, Exeter Chiefs have also been competitive in their last matches despite their poor overall performance in the league. In the meantime, following the break, I expect a different character from the road team. Bet on Exeter Chiefs to close the odds, an encounter where we could expect many goals.
