Best Rugby Odds for this Week: Six Nations Gets to Pointy End of Competition

There’s plenty to bet on in rugby union this weekend. With the Six Nations taking a break last weekend, the Northern Hemisphere competition returns this weekend for its penultimate round.

Ireland are looking to solidify their claim on the title this year, while England, France, and Scotland are all fighting desperately to stay in touch with the competition’s leaders. Meanwhile, Italy and Wales are both fighting to avoid the wooden spoon at the other end of the table.

Who’s agenda will be moved forward this weekend? We preview the Six Nations games coming up with the latest rugby betting odds as well.

Opening up the weekend’s action will be a bottom of the table clash between Italy and Wales. While both teams are winless in 2023, they’ve had rather contrasting campaigns to date. Italy have been impressive, taking both France and Ireland into the last ten minutes of their matches and being within a score of winning.

Wales, on the other hand, have conceded 89 points in three games, and look to be a team in utter shambles. The recent threat of player strikes just added another element into a side that was already struggling to perform, despite the recall of star coach Warren Gatland.

Playing in Rome in front of a home crowd, we say Italy will cause the upset here and defeat Wales for the second year in a row, with odds of +100.

Saturday night’s other match will see two title hopefuls in 2023 come together, and only one walk away with their Six Nations campaign still alive.

England have been solid but not spectacular in their last two matches, defeating both Italy and Wales. However, an opening-round loss to Scotland left their campaign reeling early on, and they’ll need to win against France—and ideally win big—if they are to have a shot at winning the Six Nations this year.

France are in a similar position, having lost to Ireland in Round Two. They bounced back strong last round by defeating Scotland in a hard-fought 32-21 match, but know that they’ll need a good win over England to keep their hopes alive here.

We say France will win, just, with odds of -163.

The final match of Round Four in the Six Nations championship will see the two favorites square off in Edinburgh. Scotland’s chances of winning their first title since 1999 took a hit when they lost to France last round. However, a defeat of Ireland would make it a level playing field heading into the final round, something the Scots will have their focus set on.

Ireland, on the other hand, will feel as though the trophy is almost theirs this year. Defeat Scotland, and they’ll nearly be home free. We say they will as well, with odds of -357 to win on Sunday.
