Saracens have been stirring controversy all week in the build up to this game. Mid-week a spokesperson for the club came out and said that Sarries will be offering full refunds to any traveling supporters if Gavin Henson scores a single point!
But now down to business! Saracens will be looking to continue their 100% record to the new season, with a win here at Allianz Park. Having lost just once in their last 21 at home a win appears to be on the cards. But Bath have been very impressive in their opening rounds as well with a routine win in Newcastle but also toppling Leicester! So no doubt this is sure to be an absolute cracker!
