England vs France Prediction

Will England lose to France for the fourth time in a row? Sportbooks tend to think so. We, in turn, also do not yet see significant prerequisites for a rematch in the second round group stage match of the Six Nations, fully aligning with the existing odds in our prediction.

England

England does not look like a potential "dark horse" of the tournament, as recent results do not inspire great optimism. The team recently marked a series of five losses. However, even now, it is not in the best form. Last week, the "reds" suffered an extremely unpleasant defeat to the Irish (22:27), having a slight advantage at the end of the first half (5:10). Over a longer distance, Steve Borthwick's crew again lacked discipline, which prevented them from holding back the formidable onslaught of fierce competitors.

France

France is the current vice-champion of the competition. But the highest ambitions were hardly satisfied despite a commendable performance. The team is well-positioned in terms of player selection and tactical developments. Therefore, it poses a colossal threat. The guys won four games in a row, limiting themselves to easy strolls in two cases (43:0 and 52:12). The "Tricolores" are accustomed to building their game from the attack, and they will apparently continue with an aggressive playing style going forward.

Editorial Prediction

In the final part, we testify that there is a clear favorite in the match. Since the previous head-to-head confrontation of the teams, which took place last spring (31:33), no tectonic changes are seen, and we believe that nothing extraordinary will happen again. A victory for the visiting team - a logical option for the match.
