Reds vs Brumbies Predictions - Reds backed to return to winning ways against the Brumbies

Brumbies have won their last two matches against the Reds. Their most recent clash ended in a 52-24 win for the Brumbies in 2023.

The Reds have looked very good on most occasions this season. They are currently fifth with three wins from five games.

The Queensland outfit began the season with a solid home win over the Waratahs before losing narrowly in Melbourne to the Hurricanes. The Reds then beat the Chiefs 25-19 at home and the Rebels 53-26 away.

With that sort of form behind them the expectation was that they would pick up another comfortable win in Perth last weekend. However, the Reds produced a flat performance as they went down 40-31 to the Western Force.

(1-15): Peni Ravai, Matt Faessler, Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, Seru Uru, Ryan Smith, Liam Wright (co-c), Fraser McReight, Harry Wilson, Tate McDermott (co-c), Tom Lynagh, Mac Grealy, Hunter Paisami, Josh Flook, Jordan Petaia, Jock Campbell

The Brumbies have made a good start to the season without ever really looking spectacular. With four wins from five games, they are third on the table.

After thrashing the Rebels in round one, the Brumbies were humiliated 46-12 by the Chiefs in Melbourne. A week later the Brumbies only just managed to beat the Western Force on home soil.

Round four saw another strong performance though as the Canberra outfit beat the Highlanders 27-21 in Dunedin. Last weekend the Brumbies completely dominated on home soil against Moana, winning the match 60-21.
