Exeter Chiefs vs Newcastle Falcons Preview

Our partners: Secure, honest, and adaptable – those are the three characteristics that come to mind when talking about casino uk no deposit 777Spinslot.

Having the title of reigning Aviva Premiership Champions means that other teams will up their game against you and Exeter Chiefs have that target on their back this season. Two losses in their opening five games have given them a tough baptism for defending their title and last week’s loss at Leicester Tigers was a game they would have won last season. It’s still early days though for the Chiefs and they just need a couple of consistent wins to put them back on track and there is little doubt they will again be in the mix for the coming season. Newcastle Falcons have been one of the surprise packages of the season and are going for their third straight win of the season, with their only loss to Saracens so far. Director of Rugby Dean Richards has got his side playing an attacking brand of rugby and it will be interesting to see if they can maintain their form and challenge for the title.

Exeter Chiefs vs Newcastle Falcons Prediction

In our Rugby Union odds, going back to their home ground after last weeks loss to the Leicester Tigers will give the Exeter Chiefs the boost they need to get the win. It’s still very early days in the Aviva Premiership title race but early form suggests both of these teams will be in the mix. The Chiefs are this year’s big target and they will once again be reliant on the outstanding accuracy of Gareth Steenson’s boot to keep them in touch when games aren’t going their way and this could be one of those games with a confident Newcastle side looking to go to Sandy Park and earn the biggest scalp of all. Home advantage cannot be ruled out as a key factor in this game and back on their home turf, for our rugby union betting tips, we think the Chiefs will be too strong for a resurgent Falcons side and will edge home in a tight contest.

Exeter Chiefs Vs Newcastle Falcons Betting Tips

Despite coming off a loss, the pedigree of the home team in recent seasons sees us plump for an Exeter Chiefs win and though it won’t be an easy contest with the high-flying Falcons, being on home turf will tip the balance in their favour and will hopefully kick-start their season. Rob Baxter’s team have not been outplayed in any of their games and it is only a matter of time until they find their feet. The 1/7 on offer at Betfair is excellent value for the reigning champions and combined with their welcome offer of up to £250 cashback on losses, you can have a worry-free tilt at this game, safe in the knowledge you will get your money back if you lose. Newcastle have been the surprise package of the season and will firmly believe they can head to Sandy Park and cause a shock. With their only loss of the season to contenders Saracens and with two away victories already, they won’t lie down for the reigning Champions but the Chiefs have class all over the field and we think they will have enough to hand the Falcons a second defeat of the season.

The Chiefs are big favourites to win this match on the handicap market and it reflects their status as Aviva Premiership title holders and the fact that they are back on home turf at Sandy Park. Exeter have started the season well but two losses have given them much to think about and it is the Falcons that could be on the end of an Exeter fight back. When the Chiefs have got it right this season, they have put points on teams and the win over fellow contenders Wasps a couple of weeks ago saw them win by 14 points. We think that Wasps are a better team than Newcastle. Hence, the backing of this in the handicap market with Sportingbet and using their £50 welcome offer could win you some serious cash. The only thing to consider here is the away form of Newcastle which is strong but we believe that Exeter on their home ground outweighs all the positives of an attacking Newcastle Falcons side and that is why we believe this is an excellent bet to snap up.
