Wales vs Fiji

The matches between these two sides have been pretty close.
Fiji beat Spain 43-13 last week and although they will also come up against Georgia on tour, this is the game they will be targeting.
Their most recent meeting came in the Rugby World Cup 2019 pool stage in Japan and Wales won it 29-17.
Fiji's last visit to Cardiff came in October 2015 and they were beaten 23-13 whilst a year earlier they were beaten 17-13 and in 2010 they drew 16-16.
Having lost their opening two autumn internationals, what Wales and Wayne Pivac (Wales coach) need above all is a win, and that**8217;s reflected in his team selection. Wales have named a strong team for this match.
Fiji are missing four key players for this match, so Wales should take care of business comfortably.

Conditions look decent and with both sides likely to play a high tempo attacking game I think we could get a high scoring affair.

Bet 1: Wales -11.5 @1.88
Bet 2: Team Total Wales Over 30.5 points @1.80
Bet 3: Team Total Tries - Wales Over 3.5 @1.72
Bet 4: Wales Over 3.5 tries + France Over (Alt) 38.5 points @2.07
Bet 5: Wales Over (Alt) 25.5 points + France Over (Alt) 44.5 points @1.90

France vs Georgia

Georgia have not played since July (9-40 away to South Africa), while France beat Argentina last week. Georgia will play Fiji next week and they will be targeting that game, they would want to be competitive in that one.
France scored 3 tries against Argentina and their coach wasn't too happy with their performance, despite the win (29-20). They want to improve their game in view of the big test that awaits them next week against New Zealand.
Georgia's team is made up of a lot of players who play in the Top 14 (French top league), so I expect them to score a few points too.

Bet 1: France -39.5 @1.87
Bet 2: Team Total Tries - France Over 6.5 @1.91
Bet 3: Team Total Points - Georgia Over 7.5 @1.83

Manawatu vs Otago, semifinal

Otago has been given a major boost for this semifinal.
Blindside flanker Sam Fischli has been cleared to play and this allows Otago to field a largely unchanged line-up.

Josh Dickson returns at lock in place of Will Tucker in the only change to the Otago line-up.
This means that they have much the same team that has hit a strong run of form over the past month.

Last week they lost 27-25 to Waikato, a top Premiership side, but they played 20 minutes with 14 men.

Manawatu won 27-14 last time these two teams met.
However, Otago was in its first game back after a longer break and rust was evident. Also, on that occasion they had the help of All Black star Aaron Smith at 9, which won't be the case this time around, as he has travelled to Europe to join the All Blacks for the end of their European tour.

Otago has proven that they can take on tough teams, having already claimed the scalps of both Premiership sides Canterbury and Wellington in the regular season.
Manawatu has leaked 36, 35 and 40 points in their last three matches, which shows a porous defence, so I expect Otago to score a fair amount of points.

With home field advantage and having a strong back three - Milner Skudder, Fainga'anuku and Fidow, I expect them to score enough points too.

Bet 1: Otago win 1-12 @2.80
Bet 2: Otago -2.5 @1.84
Bet 3: Team Total Points - Otago Over 25.5 @1.87
Bet 4: Total Points Over 46.5 @1.87
Bet 5: Team Total Points - Manawatu Over 20.5 @1.90

Waikato vs Otago

This is the last round of the regular season. Waikato needs a win to make sure they keep their second position in the Premiership ply-offs, which means home semifinal.
If they lose they will be overtaken by the winners of the other two remaining fixtures this weekend, i.e. the winner of Tasman vs Wellington as well as the winner of Canterbury vs Bay of Plenty, and they will almost certainly drop to fourth spot.

Otago are already in the Championship play-offs, nothing to play for here other than keeping in form for the play-offs. They have recently improved their game and will be looking to keep their momentum going into the play-offs.
Because there is plenty of rain and high humidity today in Rotorua, and as the visitors come into this match in good form, I think the most likely outcome here is a low scoring toughly contested match, won by the Premiership side.

Bet 1: Waikato -3.0 @1.81
Bet 2: Total Points Under 47.5 @1.80

Manawatu vs Hawke's Bay

Hawke's Bay have already won the Premiership Division and for this match they are resting their players in view of the play-offs.
Manawatu are fielding a strong team, and although they qualified for the play-offs in the Championship division, they want to go into play-offs on a high note.
Last week they put 35 points past Taranaki, the best team in the Championship, so I expect they could stay in the game and put enough points past a second string Hawke's Bay team that doesn't need the win.

Bet: Team Total Points - Manawatu Over 22.5 @1.83

Bay of Plenty vs Waikato

Bay of Plenty must win this game to keep their play-off hopes alive. last time out they beat Wellington, a play-off side and lost in OT to the Premiership table toppers.
Waikato are on a 3 match losing streak, including an embarrassing defeat to lowly Championship side Northland (Northland's only win this season).
Both these teams play running rugby that results in high scoring matches.

Bet 1: BoP -3.5 @1.75
Bet 2: Over 54.5 points @1.83

Southland vs Northland

Southland have a big opportunity to make it to the play-offs and for that they must beat Northland. Both teams are similar in quality, although at the lower end.
Southland with the best team they possibly have.

Bet 1: Southland -1 @1.85
Bet 2: Team Total Points - Southland Over 25.5 @1.85

Rugby - English Premiership

Gloucester vs Exeter Chiefs

The Chiefs are the current champions, but their season so far has not been what they expected. They are lingering around mid table, 4 points outside the play-off zone.
Gloucester are having a great season, and have now gone 4 matches undefeated, winning 3 of them and drawing one. They are 2 points ahead of Exeter.
The Chiefs are coming after a shock home loss to London Irish and I expect them to bounce back. However Gloucester are strong at home and themselves are full of confidence given their recent form.
They also have a very good team for tonight, as they have only two players missing on international duty.
The Chiefs also have a couple of players out on international duty.
Both teams have been involved in high scoring matches, including when they played each other this year and last year.

Bet: Over 46.5 points @1.88

Canterbury vs Tasman

Canterbury has disappointed again this year, as despite being the most successful team in New Zealand, they struggled to achieve the results for the past two years.
They are now just outside the play-offs and need to get back to winning ways. They lost their last 3 matches and for a team stacked with experience at the highest level, 13 players have Super Rugby experience, this is not good enough.
Tasman are just above them, ahead by 1 point.
One year ago when Canterbury were in dire straits to win in order to avoid relegation, they beat this Tasman team 29-0.
Canterbury are the dogs now, but I'll side with them to have an outburst here and recover their season.

Bet 1: Canterbury +5.5 @1.91
Bet 2: Team Total Points - Canterbury Over 20.5 @1.85

Rugby - Gallagher Premiership

Saracens v Wasps

Saracens are one of the best teams in the Premiership.
They have all four members of their contingent in the latest England squad playing, captain Owen Farrell, Lions lock Itoje and hooker Jamie George, as well as both Vunipola brothers, Mako and Billy, and Wales internationals Davies and Tompkins.

Wasps are a weakened team for this match, as they are missing 16 players.

Bet 1: Saracens (-30.5) @1.88
Bet 2: Team Total Points - Saracens Over 44.5 @1.84

Northland vs Otago

The game is played on neutral ground.
Due to Covid disruptions it has been decided that there will be no promotion/relegation this year, so the teams don't have much to play for.
Otago with a strong team, front row of Super Rugby class. They are coming off a good performance against the top team in the division, Taranaki, to whom they lost 23-30, gaining a bonus point.
Earlier Taranaki smashed Northland 48-14.
The conditions look good, so given the circumstances I expect points here and an Otago win.

Bet 1: Total Points Over 54.5 @1.88,
Bet 2: Team Total Points - Northland Over 25.5 @1.91
Bet 3: Team Total Points - Otago Over 29.5 @1.89
