Rugby Betting Tips
Saturday 15 March
Italy v Ireland
It's not the finale Ireland would have dreamed of at the start of the tournament, with last week's demolishment at the hands of France putting an end to dreams of a Grand Slam being on the line in Rome.
It could result in a fairly low-key end to the tournament, but with players bowing out and Lions places to play for, there should be plenty on this game to mean it doesn't just drift by.
I think Ireland will win fairly convincingly and the selection of Jack Crowley could see them hit an extra gear. Ultimately I think we'll see a pretty high-scoring game. Italy have scored a lot of points this year so their attacking game is on point, but the power of Ireland will be too much.
Wales v England
I'm surprised at the value on offer for this game, and I think that reflects the bookies not knowing what to expect from Wales.
We saw against Ireland that home advantage made a significant difference for them and they actually ran them close, so I think there is a very good chance of them upsetting the apple cart here.
Ultimately, England should have enough for the win and the habit of losing will cost Wales but I think it will be a pretty tight game with maybe a score or two between the teams.
France v Scotland
Wow, what a performance France put out last week in Dublin to overturn Grand Slam-chasing Ireland on their home turf - the Championship is surely theirs.
Scotland do have the potential to upset the apple cart, but I don't think we've seen enough of Gregor Townsend's men in big matches to really have any conviction in tipping a tight game, plus the sheer brilliance of France last week makes them hard to ignore.
Antoine Dupont's injury is a shame but we saw they don't rely on him for all of their flair, and Louis Bielle-Biarrey is a special talent who can make something out of nothing and I think he will enjoy himself on Saturday.

Rugby Ante-Post Tournament Previews & Predictions
When the top rugby tournaments arrive, the ante-post markets will appear, offering punters more options to those looking to place a wager.
Our rugby ante-post predictions will dive into those markets, but we don’t just want to tell you the winner - we want to find the best betting value. This means we look at markets such as a team to reach the final of a tournament or to top their pool - all ways in which we try to bring additional value to the biggest events.
Rugby Acca Betting Tips
With rugby matches taking place throughout the year, it’s an ideal sport to place an Acca on. Here we will take a look at the list of games taking place and find the best bets of the day, putting them together in an Acca so you can keep ahead of the action.
Singles are sometimes not worthwhile on rugby due to the odds on specific teams, but like with football, an Acca on rugby is a great way to bypass that and still get a good return if you manage to land a winning bet.
