They say don't bet on your own team but i cannot understand the price

Northampton V Worcester Worcester 2.5 (Sportingbet) 10pts

Worcester travel to newly promoted Northampton in the first game on Sky this season. Northampton won every game last seaosn in the league and will be confident going into the game at home. Worcester on the other hand, after getting off to a poor start last season we arguably the form side in the back end of the season beating all the top teams, and Mike Ruddock finally seemed to get it together. worcester were unbeaten in pre-season and hopefully the momentum will still be there.
both teams have strengthened their sides with Northampton making 12 signings. worcester have also added, notably legendary full back Chris Latham. Northampton will give debuts to six players and despite them doing well in pre-season too, it may take them time to gel.
The teams have met six times in the guiness prem with Worcester winning four of those, last time away in 2007. The combination of Latham, Benjamin and Gear is a strong one but the real battle will be in the forwards. both have strong packs and will try and dominate, and even I would not like to second guess who will come out on top.
Worcester without captain pat sanderson but Rawlinson steps up and Horstmann replaces him in the back row.

Anyway! I really think this is good value
