THE PREDICTION

Gloucester’s stunning 24-25 victory away at Saracens in the Premiership two weeks ago was something to behold as they consolidated a strong position in the play-off places. They can do the same in the Challenge Cup with this winnable home fixture against Perpignan, whose only away victory this season came at fellow Top 14 strugglers Biarritz two weeks ago. The French side beat the Dragons, just, at home last month but this looks like a battering waiting to happen with Gloucester able to cover -30 comfortably.
