THE PREDICTION
Bath are yet to win a match this season with five defeats from five after a 31-17 result away at Harlequins last Saturday. They were at least more competitive than a real 17-71 bruising at home to Saracens the week before but it is hard to spot their next win, certainly this calendar year and in this form. Travelling Wasps were also stung by the insatiable Sarries in a 56-15 humbling last Sunday that made it two defeats on the spin. They have lost both of their away games so far and that makes this look a potential opportunity for the hosts to get some points on the board but backing the away side to just edge out the victory looks the likelier way this tight one falls.
