The 2025/26 United Rugby Championship Grand Final is almost upon us, with Leinster and the Bulls gearing up to compete for the trophy.
Defending United Rugby Championship winners Leinster have qualified for their second successive final, as they look to retain the trophy for the first time since 2020/21.
The Irishmen finished second in the regular season standings, just two points off top spot, and booked their place in the showpiece via a 59-10 demolition of the Lions in the quarter finals and a comfortable 20-11 win over the Stormers in the semis.
Meanwhile, the Bulls are set to compete in their fourth final in the last five years, ensuring that - for a fifth successive season - a South African team will contest the final.
The Stormers are the only South African side to ever win the URC title - beating the Bulls 18-13 in the 2021/22 final - with the Pretoria based side looking for their first title.
Having finished third in the overall standings, the Bulls shocked many to reach the final, following up a 45-14 win against Munster in the quarter finals with a 21-22 away semi final victory against Glasgow Warriors - who topped the regular season table.
With all that in mind, let's take a look at how the odds suggest the United Rugby Championship Grand Final will unfold.
