England vs Scotland
Arch rival England and Scotland face off in this match with both teams looking to bounce back after disappointing performances in the Commonwealth Games where they failed to progress through to the knockout rounds. They will be looking to end their season with a first tournament win.
TIP: England are currently 8th on the World Series table while Scotland are in 12th spot. Both teams have had seasons that they would rather want to forget. England after a long time have not managed to win a single leg on tour and they have really missed record try scorer Dan Norton during the season. The bookies have New Zealand as favourites and I am also tipping them for the win. These are the best odds for this bet: Worldsportsbetting 1.73, Playabets 1.70 and Sunbet 1.74

PREDICTION
This will represent the best opportunity that Scotland have had to beat England in a long time as the English team have been besieged with injuries and retirements. Scotland have an experienced squad and have been unlucky in recent tournaments as they have lost a few very close matches. We are backing Scotland to get a rare win against England by 5 points.

Sports crazy fan that follows all major sport but the game with the oval ball is my real passion. Was an age level rugby coach and a huge supporter of the Springboks and diehard Liverpool man. I’m an experienced punter and sports writer whose predictions/tips are sure to stir up the emotions. I love the occasional wager on the underdog.
