The final game of week three in the Six Nations will see France welcome Italy. The game will be at the Decathlon Arena- Stade Pierre Mauroy. Both teams will be looking for a significant result as they have yet to play how they want to. France will look to build off their win against Scotland. Italy hopes to bounce back after a devastating loss to Ireland in Dublin. It will be an exciting game with many good betting options.
A Struggling France Team
France has yet to look great so far in the championship. They lost to Ireland in the opening round and then beat Scotland at Murrayfield. The French seem to be missing Antoine Dupont as they seem to be lacking the magic in attack. They still have many great players and will look to dominate Italy on Sunday. For France, Thomas Ramos and Charles Ollivon must play well to get a result. France are massive favourites going into the game and will look to put on a show at home.
A Promising Italy
There were a lot of promising signs for Italy against England. Yet, Ireland destroyed them, and they didn't even score a point. They will look to turn it around against France. The Italians have improved a lot in recent years. They hope to pull a big upset against France. Italy have only beaten France three times. It is always a great clash, and they will look to cause an upset.
The Bets
There are some exciting betting options for the game. The best bet is for France to win by 26 points as they will look to dominate Italy. The value bet is the total number of points to be over 53.5, as both teams have shown they can score tries. The longshot bet is that Italy will score first with a try, as you never know what can happen at the start of the game.
Best bet: France to win by 26 points- 11/10.
Value bet: total points to be over 53.5- 5/6.
Longshot bet: Italy to score first with a try-17/2.
