Stormers vs Benetton Predictions
Benetton were very strong last weekend and while I expect the Stormers to be too good this Saturday, I do feel it the game will be won by less than 10 points.

Head to Head
Benetton beat the Stormers 20-17 at home when they last met in November 2023.
Stormers Form
The Stormers moved into the top eight with their win last weekend and now will want to focus on looking up, rather than down. Their next three games are all at home and they want to get 15 points from those.
The season has not gone very well for the Cape Town side, but they have still managed to get key results. The former champions beat the Bulls 19-16 away at the start of March before defeating the Scarlets 29-17 away. It was followed by a 38-34 loss to Ulster away but that was a fixture the Stormers really should have won.
Last weekend, while the Stormers weren’t convincing at home, they managed a 34-29 victory over Connacht. Victory this weekend will put them in a good place heading into the final couple of weeks.
Stormers Injuries & Team News
John Dobson will make a few changes to his side, but the core should remain much the same.
Benetton Form
Benetton are having another strong season and currently find themselves fifth on the table. They have had eight wins, six losses and a draw in the URC thus far.
Despite being fifth, Benetton are only four points ahead of 11th place, so things can change quickly with a defeat. Recent form is, however, certainly in the Italians favour.
Benetton beat Ulster at home in mid-February before losing 38-30 away to Connacht. They bounced back to beat Edinburgh and Cardiff at home by narrow margins. A 39-37 loss away to Castres in Europe did not hamper them as they beat the Lions 42-31 away last weekend.
Benetton Injuries & Team News
Benetton put in a huge shift last weekend to get a result on the highveld. They will almost certainly ring the changes for this match.
Verdict
Benetton are backed to get within 10.5 points.
Benetton +10.5
