France vs Ireland predictions
These two teams are the tournament’s strongest, but the French are way out in front of their Irish opponents. However, this will be France’s first test of the tournament, after opening their campaign with a routine win over Italy. This is also Ireland’s first real test, as last weekend saw them easily beat a depleted Welsh side.
Both sides will know the huge importance of this match – whoever wins will be the overwhelming favourites to win the tournament. However, don’t expect a cagey encounter – that’s not the French way.
The bookies have France as heavy favourites for this match, and we can’t disagree with them, but the odds being offered on a France win simply don’t make a bet worth it. However, the handicap market looks far more attractive.
At bet365, they’ve got France -5 to win with odds of 1/1, which we think is great. While Ireland are strong, expect France to come out and win this game by more than just five points.
