Scarlets vs Bristol Bears Predictions - Scarlets to edge Bristol Bears in Champions Cup
A crucial rugby clash between the Scarlets and Bristol Bears is on the horizon. Both teams are struggling to find top form, but Scarlets have a slight edge due to their recent 23-0 victory against Glasgow. The Bears, despite their loss to Exeter, could spring a surprise with the inclusion of returning players like Ellis Genge and Gabriel Oghre. While Scarlets are expected to either win or at least cover the +7.5 handicap, the game promises to be fiercely contested.
- Scarlets rely on recent home win versus Glasgow.
- Bristol Bears bolster team with key player returns.
- Scarlets expected to cover +7.5 handicap.

Neither side is in particularly good form heading into this clash. I am leaning towards Scarlets to come out on top or at least cover the +7.5 handicap.

Scarlets Form
Scarlets have not been in top form and will rely on the momentum of their recent 23-0 home win over Glasgow.
This morale-boosting win coupled with their gritty defence and regional pride, should see them get over the line in this match.

Bristol Bears Form
Bristol Bears have also not been in the best of shape and come into this match after losing 17-22 away to Exeter.
Their recent form has an attacking spark and should push Scarlets all the way.
Bristol Bears Injuries & Team News
They will welcome back England vice-captain Ellis Genge, who is set to return to club action, and hooker Gabriel Oghre, who has recovered from a stomach bug, Tom Jordan has also been declared fit to play after a HIA in their previous match.
Verdict
I am backing Scarlets to get within 7.5 points and perhaps upset the odds with a win.
