RUGBY WORLD CUP
There are 6 matches taking place over Saturday and Sunday and the highlight is surely New Zealand against South Africa where there has been plenty of money for the Boks and they have shortened from 9/4 yesterday to a current price of 2/1. The handicap has also edged in a point from (+6.5) to (+5.5). There will be loads of Exotic Markets on offer for the match including Points Lines so be sure to check in at this link closer to kick-off and you can read our match preview here
Australia v Fiji should be an entertaining match on Saturday morning and we have a preview up in our dedicated World Cup Section. The Wallabies are firm favourites for the match at a handicap of (-15.5) and we think Fiji may just be able to give them a scare and make the (+15.5) a decent play.
