France vs Scotland: Les Bleus have too much to do

Six Nations predictions: Tasty 9/2 Round 5 treble

Wales vs England: Hosts backed to make bright start

Italy vs Ireland: Azzurri appeal in handicap markets

Ireland vs France: Les Bleus still have plenty to prove
Tony Kelshaw 13.02.2021

Ireland vs France: Les Bleus still have plenty to prove

Ireland showed plenty of spirit in defeat against Wales after going down to 14 men early on and deserve another chance when entertaining France. Les Bleus are now favourites to claim a first Six Nations title since 2010 after thrashing Italy in Rome but this will be a totally different test. More...
Scotland vs Wales: Hosts can build on Twickenham triumph
Tony Kelshaw 10.02.2021

Scotland vs Wales: Hosts can build on Twickenham triumph

Scotland's confidence should be sky high after stunning England in their Six Nations opener and they have a good chance of following up with a win over Wales. The Dragons made hard work of edging out an Ireland side reduced to 14 men early on and have been rocked by injury problems ahead of this trip. More...
England vs Italy: Holders must now boost points difference
Tony Kelshaw 10.02.2021

England vs Italy: Holders must now boost points difference

After last week's shock loss to Scotland, England face Italy knowing points difference is likely to play a part if they are to recover and retain the Six Nations title. That spells bad news for the Azzurri, who looked a lost cause when thrashed 50-10 at home by France in the opening round of fixtures. More...
Wales vs Ireland: Away win rated percentage pick
Tony Kelshaw 06.02.2021

Wales vs Ireland: Away win rated percentage pick

Wales suffered an alarming dip in form during 2020 and begin this year's Six Nations with plenty to prove when taking on Ireland in Cardiff. The Dragons slipped from Grand Slam winners in 2019 to a fifth-place finish in this competition and also struggled in the Autumn Nations Cup. More...
England vs Scotland: Visitors tipped to be competitive
Tony Kelshaw 05.02.2021

England vs Scotland: Visitors tipped to be competitive

Scotland have given England lots of trouble in recent Six Nations encounters and are again fancied to be competitive at Twickenham this weekend. Gregor Townsend's men have become defensively sound and it is hard to envisage them taking a significant beating in this season's opening contest. More...
Italy vs France: Azzurri appeal in handicap market
Tony Kelshaw 02.02.2021

Italy vs France: Azzurri appeal in handicap market

Italy have tended to save their best Six Nations efforts for when facing France in recent seasons and may be worth backing with a big start in Rome. The Azzurri were on top for long periods before going down 25-14 here two years ago and played their part in an entertaining 35-22 defeat in Paris last term. More...
England vs France: Les Bleus appeal with big start
Tony Kelshaw 04.12.2020

England vs France: Les Bleus appeal with big start

England are hot favourites to add Autumn Nations Cup glory to their Six Nations success when hosting France in Sunday's final, but may not have things all their own way. Les Bleus are hampered by being forced to field a shadow team, but they have still impressed during this tournament. More...
Autumn Nations Cup: Predictions for Round 3 matches
Andrew McDermott 27.11.2020

Autumn Nations Cup: Predictions for Round 3 matches

We've got Autumn Nations Cup predictions for the third round of fixtures in this new tournament involving eight countries. It has replaced the normal autumn Test match schedule that had to be scrapped as teams avoided extended travel because of the coronavirus pandemic. More...
Super League Grand Final: Wigan to end on a high
Andrew McDermott 25.11.2020

Super League Grand Final: Wigan to end on a high

Two of the game's biggest rivals will meet when Wigan take on St Helens in a belated climax to the 2020 Super League season. St Helens will extend their own record of 12 Grand Final appearances, but the losers will set a new, unwanted record for most defeats, both having previously lost on five occasions. More...
A history of the Six Nations wooden spoon
Stuart Walker 19.10.2020

A history of the Six Nations wooden spoon

With the 2020 Six Nations set to resume after its coronavirus-enforced hiatus, most fans’ attention will be focused on France, England and Scotland as they vie for this year’s title. However, we’re casting our eyes down to the bottom of the table where Italy are on course to receive their 15th wooden spoon of the Six Nations era. More...
Exeter vs Racing 92: Chiefs to be crowned European champions
Tony Kelshaw 16.10.2020

Exeter vs Racing 92: Chiefs to be crowned European champions

Racing 92 have lost in two of the last four Heineken Champions Cup finals and are again up against it when taking on Exeter in Bristol. The Chiefs will contest their first European decider but are not expected to suffer from stage fright following great success at Premiership level. More...
Challenge Cup final: Rhinos too powerful for Red Devils
Tony Kelshaw 16.10.2020

Challenge Cup final: Rhinos too powerful for Red Devils

Emotions will run high when Leeds take on Salford in this year's Challenge Cup final behind closed doors at Wembley. Former Rhinos and Great Britain scrum-half Rob Burrow will be the chief guest ‘in absentia’ as he battles against Motor Neurone Disease and can inspire his old club to success. More...
Six Nations history: A statistical review

Six Nations history: A statistical review

With the 2020 Six Nations set to finally conclude in October after a coronavirus-enforced hiatus that saw the final four matches postponed, we have taken a look at the most interesting numbers in Six Nations history since the current format was introduced in 2000. More...
Who are the best international sports teams?
Stuart Walker 22.05.2020

Who are the best international sports teams?

When international sport is finally allowed to resume there will be an enormous amount of world titles waiting to be decided. Even without the rescheduled Olympic games, the sporting calendar will be packed, keeping us glued to our screens as all the unfinished business is resolved. More...
Roosters vs Sea Eagles: Champions to get back on track
Tony Kelshaw 19.03.2020

Roosters vs Sea Eagles: Champions to get back on track

Back-to-back NRL champions the Sydney Roosters will be keen to kick-start their 2020 campaign by seeing off the Sea Eagles at Leichhardt Oval. Both of these teams suffered defeats in round one, but Trent Robinson's side did have the excuse of returning from World Club Challenge duties. More...
Bulldogs vs Cowboys: Visitors further forward in attack
Tony Kelshaw 18.03.2020

Bulldogs vs Cowboys: Visitors further forward in attack

Canterbury and North Queensland both kicked off the 2020 NRL campaign with defeats, but the latter will have taken more out of their first effort. The Cowboys showed some promise in attack when going down 28-21 to Brisbane, whereas the Bulldogs failed to fire going forward in an 8-2 loss to Parramatta. More...
St Helens vs Sydney Roosters: Saints can be competitive
Tony Kelshaw 21.02.2020

St Helens vs Sydney Roosters: Saints can be competitive

Australian sides have dominated rugby league's World Club Challenge of late and St Helens face a tough test when taking on the Sydney Roosters. However, while the odds are stacked against Saints becoming only the second British winner in eight years, we feel they can be competitive on home turf. More...
England vs Ireland: Underdogs rated value at Twickenham
Tony Kelshaw 19.02.2020

England vs Ireland: Underdogs rated value at Twickenham

The jury is still out on England after two inconclusive Six Nations performances and we're reluctant to trust them against a rock-solid side like Ireland. Andy Farrell's men stuttered to an opening victory over Scotland but were much more convincing when seeing off defending champions Wales in Dublin. More...
Wales vs France: Hosts have great head-to-head record
Tony Kelshaw 19.02.2020

Wales vs France: Hosts have great head-to-head record

Wales have won eight of their last nine encounters with France, but only one of those contests was settled by more than 10 points. The four most recent meetings have been incredibly close, with the aggregate score 76-71 in favour of the Dragons, following October's 20-19 World Cup triumph. More...
Italy vs Scotland: Visitors to shade tight tussle
Tony Kelshaw 19.02.2020

Italy vs Scotland: Visitors to shade tight tussle

Scotland are expected to inflict a 25th straight Six Nations defeat on Italy in Rome but the feeling is that this will at least be a competitive contest. The Azzurri only went down by a couple of points when these teams met here a couple of years ago and are coming off a spirited effort in France. More...
Ireland vs Scotland: Visitors appeal in handicap market
Tony Kelshaw 29.01.2020

Ireland vs Scotland: Visitors appeal in handicap market

Ireland comfortably accounted for Scotland at the World Cup and have won their last couple of Six Nations encounters, but now must adapt to a new regime. Andy Farrell may have been promoted from within, but there is still every chance that the men in green may take a little time to adjust. More...
Wales vs Italy: Pivac can get off to flying start
Tony Kelshaw 29.01.2020

Wales vs Italy: Pivac can get off to flying start

Wales begin the defence of their Six Nations crown with a straightforward task when taking on perennial whipping boys Italy. Last year's Grand Slam champions have won 13 straight encounters with the Azzurri, with the average margin of victory being 31 points over the past five meetings in this comp. More...
England vs South Africa: Red rose can bloom in World Cup final
Tony Kelshaw 31.10.2019

England vs South Africa: Red rose can bloom in World Cup final

England put in such a controlled performance when beating New Zealand in the World Cup semis that they are hard to oppose against South Africa in the final. The Springboks managed to grind out a scrappy win over Wales in the other last-four contest but have not shown the same class. More...
New Zealand vs Wales: All Blacks can dominate play-off
Tony Kelshaw 30.10.2019

New Zealand vs Wales: All Blacks can dominate play-off

Stellar coaches Steve Hansen and Warren Gatland will move on after New Zealand face Wales and we reckon it is the former who will sign off on a high note. Both teams have made changes for the Rugby World Cup third-place play-off and that should bring the All Blacks' greater strength in depth into play. More...
Wales vs South Africa: History on the side of the underdogs
Andrew McDermott 25.10.2019

Wales vs South Africa: History on the side of the underdogs

Wales made hard work of reaching the last four but are now just one win away from their first Rugby World Cup final. The Six Nations champions were in danger of elimination last weekend but came from behind to claim a 20-19 victory and set up a showdown with South Africa. More...
England vs New Zealand: All Blacks to edge first semi
Andrew McDermott 23.10.2019

England vs New Zealand: All Blacks to edge first semi

England head into Saturday’s Rugby World Cup semi-final in Yokohama as big underdogs to cause an upset and halt New Zealand’s defence of their title. The All Blacks are looking to win the tournament for a third successive time and the way they blew Ireland away in the quarter-finals showed they are clearly the team to beat once again. More...
Japan vs South Africa: Brave Blossoms can be competitive
Tony Kelshaw 18.10.2019

Japan vs South Africa: Brave Blossoms can be competitive

Japan will have fond memories of facing South Africa at the 2015 Rugby World Cup, when famously pulling off a stunning upset to prevail 34-32. The Brave Blossoms have been superb on home turf this time around, claiming the scalps of Ireland and Scotland, so they could well test the Springboks again. More...
New Zealand vs Ireland: All Blacks to be pushed hard
Tony Kelshaw 17.10.2019

New Zealand vs Ireland: All Blacks to be pushed hard

Ireland have won two of their last three games against New Zealand and can be competitive in Saturday's Rugby World Cup quarter-final clash. The All Blacks are still the team to beat as they chase a hat-trick of titles, but no longer seem able to totally dominate other top nations at this level. More...
England vs Australia: Wallabies to be game but outgunned
Tony Kelshaw 17.10.2019

England vs Australia: Wallabies to be game but outgunned

England were beaten by Australia at the last Rugby World Cup but have won all six meetings since then and look in better shape at present. Eddie Jones' side cruised through the group stage as Pool C winners, albeit without having to face France, whereas the Wallabies laboured to second place behind Wales. More...

What will happen in the Rugby World Cup knockout stages?

With the typhoon-battered pool stage of the Rugby World Cup now over, attention has turned swiftly to the knockout rounds where the eight remaining teams are vying for glory. We’ve analysed every full international match since the tournament was established in 1987 for clues about how the rest of the competition will pan out. More...
