Gloucester to beat Ulster @ 1.6

I think Gloucester can kick off their Heineken Cup campaign with a win at a struggling Ulster side. Ulster are missing David Humphreys who is only fit enough for the bench and they have made a terrible start to the Magners League having won only once in their first six. Gloucester have players such as ex Rugby League start Vainikolo back and also England Center Mike Tindall and they will provide something more for a much older and wiser Gloucester team

Newport Dragons +16.5 v Perpignan

The Dragons will battle with Perpignan tonight but I dont see them getting anything from this game. Perpignan like many French sides rely on their Home form in the Heineken Cup and with good signing such as Percy Montgomery who is ex Newport, Chris Cusiter and Henry Tuilagi they will have a really good chance of doing well. The Dragons pack can go all the way here but their backs are just not good enough and they will be looking to play a kicking game tonight which Sweeney has to be on top form

Percy Montgomery is missing tonight for the French side. He's still injured.
