THE PREDICTION
Lions have quietly gone about an impressive three-match winning streak at home in the United Rugby Championship after a 45-15 result over Ospreys last Friday. They have also beaten Cardiff and, fantastically, Munster at home over the last few weeks as the European nations continue to struggle on their respective tours and travelling Edinburgh will not be as confident as they might have been a few weeks ago. The visitors have, though, triumphed where other URC sides have failed as they come off an impressive 5-21 victory at Sharks for a pretty surprising margin. Lions’ victory over Munster by two points last month makes taking Edinburgh at outright look a sensible pick here, although you could be forgiven for adding a +1 safety net.
