Here are all the details on how you can watch Sale's upcoming match with Bath.
Sale v Bath live stream: How to watch from anywhere
Sale are on fantastic form in the Gallagher Premiership at the moment winning their last four matches. This run of form has seen them rise up the table to as high as 2nd and they will be looking to cement that position against Bath this weekend.
Bath are not a side to be taken lightly though as they have won their last two matches including a 40-15 drubbing or Worcester. They sit in 5th place right now only four points behind Sale so this weekend’s action could see big swings in the table.
Indeed the last time the two sides faced each other was in December 2019 and it was a narrow victory for Bath. We expect the scoreline to be similarly tight this weekend. Below are the teams.
Sale: Luke James, Denny Solomona, Manu Tuilagi, Rohan Janse van Rensburg, Marland Yarde, AJ MacGinty, Faf de Klerk, Valerey Morozov, Akker van der Merwe, Will-Griff John, Matt Postlethwaite, Jean-Luc du Preez, Jono Ross (captain) Ben Curry, Tom Curry
Replacements: Rob Webber, Coenie Oosthuizen, Jake Cooper-Woolley, Cobus Wiese, Jean Luc du Preez, Will Cliff, Sam James, Arron Reed.
Bath: Tom de Glanville, Gabriel Hamer-Webb, Jonathan Joseph, Josh Matavesi, Ruaridh McConnochie, Rhys Priestland, Ben Spencer, Beno Obano, Tom Dunn, Will Stuart, Josh McNally, Charlie Ewels (captain), Josh Bayliss, Sam Underhill, Taulupe Faletau
Replacements: Ross Batty, Juan Schoeman, Henry Thomas, Will Spencer, Tom Ellis, Miles Reid, Will Chudley, Cameron Redpath
