Bath Rugby secured a narrow victory against Sale Sharks with a final score of 31-26. Dan Frost opened the scoring for Bath with a try in the 18th minute, converted by Santiago Carreras. Sale retaliated quickly, with Tom O'Flaherty and Robert du Preez scoring tries shortly after, both converted by George Ford. Bath struggled with discipline, as both Joe Cokanasiga and Frost received yellow cards, allowing Sale to build momentum. However, Bath's Louie Hennessey and Ethan Staddon contributed crucial tries, keeping the pressure on Sale. In the dying minutes, Alfie Barbeary's try sealed the win for Bath, despite Sale's late efforts. This match reinforced Bath's dominance over Sale in their recent encounters.
