Newcastle have won their last two encounters at the Kingsholm

Greetings to all Ultimate Rugby followers. Today Gloucester host the Newcastle Falcons at Kingsholm Stadium. Newcastle currently occupying last place on the Premiership table with only 6 wins out of 20 games. Gloucester on the other hand have won 12 out of their 20 games so far and occupy the 3rd. It must be noted that Gloucester would want to forget their performance against Worcester Warriors a week ago. Can Johan Ackerman´s men make use of their home ground advantage this time. As mentioned before the visitors find Kingsholm Stadium to be a happy hunting ground. More updates to follow.

The last three matches between the two clubs in Premiership Rugby have all been won by the away side on the day. Newcastle have won on their last two visits to Kingsholm in the tournament – the only opposing side to have won three in a row at the famous venue being Bath with five successive wins between 2014 and 2018.

Gloucester’s 20-27 defeat at Worcester on Sunday ended a four-game winning run. The Cherry & Whites have won their last four encounters at Kingsholm in Premiership Rugby but have not won five in a row at the famous venue since February 2018.
