As the United Rugby Championship resumes, Glasgow Warriors will host Dragons at Scotstoun Stadium in this upcoming fixture. Dragons are expected to enter this match as significant underdogs on the road, while Glasgow Warriors are well-favored as the home team.

Glasgow Warriors - Warriors to show dominance again

The Glasgow Warriors currently stand at the third position on the URC table, having secured six wins and suffered three defeats in nine matches. They are just one point behind Benetton in second place and three points adrift of Leinster at the top. In their last match before the Six Nations break, Glasgow Warriors emerged victorious, defeating Toulon 29-5 in the Champions Cup. The week prior, they faced a narrow 19-17 defeat against Exeter in the same competition. In the URC, the Warriors experienced a 19-14 loss to Edinburgh in a Scottish derby at the end of September, following a 22-10 win against the same opposition the previous week in their home game.

Despite missing their Scottish internationals, the Glasgow Warriors remain competitive with some depth in their squad. They will look to capitalize on this depth and aim for a win against the struggling Dragons side.

Dragons - Dragons keep struggling

The Dragons find themselves in the 15th position on the URC table, just one point ahead of the Sharks at the bottom. Their season has been challenging, with only two victories in their nine URC games. The Dragons have mostly found themselves on the wrong side of results this season, with their notable win being a 13-12 victory against Scarlets on New Year's Day. Apart from that, they have faced difficulties, as evidenced by their recent 29-9 home loss to the Sharks in the Challenge Cup and a 20-17 defeat to Zebre in the same competition a week earlier. The Dragons, while not having an abundance of international players, are still missing key players due to the Six Nations.

Expert Betting Tips

Given Glasgow Warriors' impressive performance in the league this season and their dominant record in the previous meetings with Dragons, they are understandably favored with a high chance of winning. The Warriors have maintained an unbeaten streak in their last four encounters with the Dragons, including a notable 73-33 victory in their most recent clash. On the other hand, the Dragons are currently struggling with poor form, securing only one win in their last five games across all competitions.

Considering these factors, my prediction of Glasgow Warriors securing a convincing home win and potentially covering the -16 handicap appears reasonable.
