Sharks vs Edinburgh Predictions
The Sharks have been poor this season, but they have improved in recent weeks. At home, they can beat anyone on their day and I fancy them to cover the -9 handicap on Saturday.

- Edinburgh have lost their last 2 away matches.
Head to Head
The Sharks beat Edinburgh 23-13 just two weeks ago in the URC.
Sharks Form
The Sharks are having an atrocious season and are 13th in the URC. They have managed just three wins in 13 games, although their form in the Challenge Cup has been better.
Despite their poor season, the Sharks still have plenty of quality on their side and are certainly fighting at the wrong end of the table. Their form has improved recently as well with three wins in their last three games.
After being hammered by the Lions at the beginning of Marc, the Sharks bounced back to beat Ulster 22-12 at home before seeing off Edinburgh a week later on home soil. Last week the Sharks cruised past Zebre in Durban, winning 47-3.
Sharks Injuries & Team News
Winning the Challenge Cup is all the Sharks can still achieve this year. They will not be resting players this weekend.
Edinburgh Form
Edinburgh have had a solid season to date with eight wins in 13 URC games. They are currently ninth but still well within a shot of a quarter-final spot.
Away from home, particularly in South Africa, the Scots have struggled. After beating Ospreys 19-15 at home on 1 March, they lost 43-21 at the Stormers. A week later they lost by 10 points to the Sharks in Durban.
At home last week, Edinburgh bounced back to win 33-15 against Bayonne and secure their quarter-final berth.
Edinburgh Injuries & Team News
I expect a similar side to the one from last week by Edinburgh.
Verdict
I am backing the Sharks improved form to continue with a win by more than 10 points.
