THE PREDICTION
Sharks are in solid contention for a United Rugby Championship play-off place after a 28-23 victory at home to leaders Leinster last Saturday, their fourth win on the spin across all competitions. They are unbeaten at home in the URC but face a tougher than it may appear challenge from travelling Connacht after the visitors shocked Lions 30-33 last Saturday. Connacht have struggled for large parts of the URC season but they have won three of their last four away games in the league to make things interesting here. Still, any side that beats runaway leaders Leinster is a force to be reckoned with on their own turf and backing Sharks to double that margin against Connacht with -9 looks a reasonable risk here.
