Sunday 9th september

Rugby world cup

Scotland V Portugal

A mismatch of the highest order, the question here is how many points will the Scots rack up. Portugals main problem coming into this world cup is their slender physical build. The scots have a big strong pack and I expect them to brush the portugese aside without any difficulty. Scotland need to get a bit of confidence up and on their day are a great battling side. Scoring a bucketload today will be a prority for them. A 60 point win minimum is how I see this one going.
Over 79 points is evens at bet365 and that’s the bet I like for this one, stakes will be kept low though as im unsure to how Scotland will drive home in the second half


Ireland V Namibia
As with the Scotland game this is another mismatch, despite some pre tournament troubles, Ireland have set their sights firmly on the early games to get a good points total and confidence up for the all important clashes against France and Argentina. Not much else to add here, Ireland have named a full strength team and will crush Namibia.
Ireland by about about 80 points is how I see this one going.
Ireland – 70 points is evens at Stan james, a very good price but im slightly cautious as to whether Ireland can get a big score up or not. Small stake again till i see them play.

PICKS

Scotland V Portugal over 79 points (2 @ bet365) 1 point

Ireland – 70 points (2 @ stan James) 1 point

Scotland labour to a 56 - 10 win

Ive tuned out from the Ireland game, its that bad, they are currently up by 10 with not long left, No chance of either team going past the quarters in my opinion
