Six Nations: England vs. France Online Betting Odds
18th March, 2010
The majority of bookies, the media and fans believe that France have already won the final six nations match against England, to be played this weekend, as they have already claimed the Grand Slam.
However, England could pull it back as recent history between the countries clearly show that England can really get their acts together when they take on the French having beaten them on each of their last three 6 nations matches. That’s why we think that the 9/2 odds available from bet365 offer exceptional value.
It has been said that England look slightly short of ideas in the games they’ve played so far, however they undoubtedly have players in the team that can cause trouble to the best players in the world.
Martin Johnson has surprise many by axing Johnny Wilkinson from the starting line up, opting for Toby Flood which signals that the plan is to run at the French team whenever there is an opportunity.
France’s form has been superb so far, in particular when they beat Ireland in Paris and if they reproduce the same form against England, they are certainly in trouble. The French coach, marc Lievremont has called Mathieu Bastareud back to the start line with bookies making him 12/1 to score the opening try.
Everything seems to be pointing towards a French victory for the match, however if you are an optimist you can bet on an England win at 11/1 with Bet365 by between 6-10 points.
