- USA +20 @ — 13/14 Unibet
- Under 44.5 Points @ — 10/7 888sport
Both Italy and the USA were beaten in their opening games of the World Cup and will be looking forward to this one as a game they can potentially win, or at least play better in. Italy are the favourites for this one, despite being well beaten by Ireland in their opener. The USA did not show much against Fiji in their opening loss and will want to perform better overall to give themselves a chance. Go to the rugby league bets page for more matches.

Italy vs USA Preview
Although they lost 36-12 against Ireland in their opener, Italy did as well as it was expected of them in that game and this one gives them a much better chance of success. They will have targeted this game as one they could win and go into it as game favourites.
The USA will have been disappointed by the way they were beaten against Fiji, eventually losing the game 58-12. This game will be easier, but they are going to have to defend better if they are to have any success, otherwise, Italy will be able to pick them off just like Fiji did.
Italy vs USA Prediction
Italy are the favourites for this game and this is no surprise, although we do think they are much shorter in the betting than they should be. That also applies to the handicap lines, they are giving the USA a much bigger start than what I had anticipated seeing for this game. That may be influenced by the poor defence of the USA last weekend, but Fiji are a much better team than Italy.
It wouldn’t surprise us if this was quite a tight game, and if the USA can hold up better defensively this week, then they have a great chance of keeping this a lot closer than the bookmakers are predicting.
Italy vs USA Betting Tips
The handicap line on this game with Unibet is great, a number far too big so we are more than happy to back the USA at 13/14 with a +20 start against Italy on Sunday. That is a big start in what could be a close, fairly low scoring game and should be enough to give the USA the handicap win. At the prices, this is the biggest line available, giving the USA the biggest head start. Judging by how they played against Fiji, it's very probable that a similar score will be seen again.
As we think this game will be quite low scoring, the total points market is also very appealing. With 888sport, under 44.5 points in the game is priced at 10/7, the best price available on this line. Both teams will be looking to defend well and not make any mistakes which makes this a very appealing bet. Plus, both teams have some powerful players in defence, and they are not going to lose many points. On the other hand, Italy has also seen low scoring matches recently, which makes this a perfect pick. Make sure to check the rugby league odds page for more options!
