  • Even though they play at home, France will still face one of the best teams in the Rugby Union world – France +15 Handicap — 1/1 Winner
  • It will be a closely fought contest, but New Zealand boasts an amazing form – New Zealand to Win by 1-10 Points — 3/1 10Bet

While France haven’t played since their summer tour of South Africa, New Zealand have played two games recently and that could give them the edge in the game at the weekend. New Zealand beat the Barbarians last weekend but lost to Australia before that. However, while that form isn’t great, it does mean they have played together twice in the last few weeks, something that France haven’t done. Let's check the best rugby predictions for this match.

France vs New Zealand Preview

It wasn’t a very good summer for France, they played three games against South Africa and were beaten comfortably in all three. Defeats by scores of 35-12, 37-14, and 37-15 showed there is a lot of work to do for the French team and their upcoming internationals will show us how far they have come.

New Zealand showed glimpses of promise against the Barbarians and Australia in their two recent games, and those will have put them on the spot for their trip to Europe in the autumn. This is the first of two games played between France and New Zealand, with the other being played on Tuesday so it will be interesting to see how the two teams line up in each of those games.

France vs New Zealand Prediction

We expect to see quite a close game here, France have home advantage but the New Zealand team should enter in better shape after playing two games together. We think New Zealand will eventually run out winners of the game but not by the margin predicted by some of the bookmakers, and because of that, the handicap betting is a very interesting market to look at.

France will want to show their fans what they are capable of after being beaten in South Africa, and what better stage to show that than in a game against the All Blacks. That should give France enough motivation to keep this game very close. Let's find the best odds rugby for this match!

France vs New Zealand Betting Tips

Although we fancy New Zealand to just nick the game, we are extremely happy to see that France have got what looks to be a big start on the handicap line. The best line and price available is with Winner and they have France priced up at evens with a +15 start. We think that will be more than enough to keep them ahead of the All Blacks. We expect the final score to have the All Blacks winning by a single figure margin, therefore, this handicap is a real value bet. It will be tight though, as France will want to impress their fans on their home stadium.

The winning margin of the game is where we have another strong fancy and that is for New Zealand to win the game by between 1 and 10 points. This is priced up at a good price with 10Bet and in what looks sure to be a close game, this looks a good bet to us. We think France have enough to keep this game close but not quite enough to beat the All Blacks in what should be a very closely fought contest. New Zealand will play away, and this bet is pretty safe given that they won't have the boost of their home fans.
