First organised in the 1999 season, it has become incredibly popular, has seen by the incredible availability of Rugby Seven odds. Canada is a vital stage in the tournament given that it marks and just over the midway stage. The USA Sevens clearly showed that there is still plenty to fight for. Hong Kong, Singapore, France, and England will be the remaining destinations for the 2016-17 World Rugby Sevens Series.

Early Favourites

Canadian Sevens predictions places South Africa as one of the strongest teams coming into the tournament, which will be held between March 11 and 12. After the incredible success at USA Sevens where they took 22 points compared to Fiji’s 19 points, South Africa are rightly placed as the favourites to win the Canada Sevens.

South Africa have the overall lead in the table with 107 points compared to Fiji on 83 points. New Zealand are the defending champions of the Canada Sevens, but they have been in poor form in the 2016-17 season. They are not favourites among the rugby betting tips as a result of taking only 15 points from the last event.

History

Canada Sevens has started playing an important role in the World Rugby Sevens Series and will continue to do so at least for the next three seasons. Canada has been hosting tournaments since the 2015-16 season after securing a four-year deal. Rugby odds for this edition will largely focus on winners from the previous events, as history with regard to Canada Sevens is limited. New Zealand managed to beat South Africa 19-14 in the first ever edition. Canada finished as the bowl champions, while Russia where the Shield winners. Samoa finished as the winners of the plate. BC Place in Vancouver plays host to Canada Sevens, which will be attracting sizable rugby betting tips for the 2017 edition.

Competition

It appears that South Africa may be running away with the title after opening up a huge advantage in the table. England and Fiji are fighting out for the second spot with both teams separated by only two points. Rugby betting odds are likely to favour England amongst the duo, as they have had one tournament win back at Cape Town. Fiji are still waiting for the first cup win of the season.
