What to Expect in the 2024 Rugby Championship

Four of the most illustrious rugby union nations on the planet will collide in the Rugby Championship 2024 across August and September.

This year’s edition is the 13th edition of the event, with Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa all competing for the top prize.

A thrilling first round of matches were contested on August 10, but are we any closer to finding out the nation that will land a prestigious success in the tournament?

You can find the latest Rugby Championship 2024 odds below, as well as our picks to win the competition.

Betting Odds for the Next Rugby Championship

There is a slightly different outlook to the outright betting following the opening round of matches in the Rugby Championship, with South Africa being listed as the heavy -295 favorites to win the title.

New Zealand are competitively priced at +300, while Argentina and Australia are the two outsiders at the current prices available.

The South American nation is an interesting selection at +840, while Australia is the outsider of the four at +10000.

South Africa Leading Contenders

South Africa will be hoping to build on their World Cup success last year by landing a second major international honor in as many years in 2024.

It has been a dry spell in the tournament for the Springboks in recent years, as they haven’t won the Rugby Championship since 2019.

However, South Africa made a dominant start to the competition this year after dismantling Australia in Brisbane last weekend.

Their 33-7 success saw them capture the Nelson Mandela Challenge Plate, and Kurt-Lee Arendse was the standout star for the Springboks after scoring two tries.

South Africa will be favored in the betting this weekend for their second showdown against Australia, before matches against New Zealand and Argentina are played before the end of September.

New Zealand Bidding For Response

New Zealand remain the second favorites in the betting for the outright Rugby Championship this year, but they will need to bounce back to form against Argentina before showdowns against the Springboks and Australia.

The All Blacks were stunned against their South American rivals last weekend, slipping to defeat in Wellington by a 38-30 scoreline.

That was the most points that New Zealand have allowed in a home test match since conceding 36 against South Africa in 2018.

However, the All Blacks have been the dominant force in the Rugby Championship throughout history, winning the title on 20 occasions, which includes victories in each of the last four editions.

But, they will need to avoid a second straight loss against Argentina to keep their hopes of retaining the title alive.

Argentina Look Capable Of A Surprise

Argentina have never won the Rugby Championship, and they have ended the competition with the wooden spoon on nine previous occasions.

However, they showed in their opening match of the tournament that they boast the quality required to throw down serious challenges to their rivals this summer.

The South American nation was excellent from start to finish against the All Blacks last weekend, with Lucio Cinti, Mateo Carreras, and Agustin Creevy all scoring tries.

Confidence levels within the team will be at an all-time high after scoring their biggest win against the All Blacks, but backing that performance up against their illustrious rivals this weekend will be a huge challenge.
