Scotland is coming off a 73-12 demolition win over Canada. Scotland won that match despite having 10 debutants. The Bravehearts plans to change all members of its starting 15 for this match. Our betting guide should detail how that will go.

This is a match where there isn’t even a moneyline readily available on most books. Scotland is a 50.5-point favorite and should be able to cover the spread. The USA hasn’t played much recently and recently took a head-scratching, two-point loss to Romania.

The USA has a Long Way to Go

The Eagles turned in a poor performance against Romania earlier in July. Despite Romania being down to 13 men, they were able to scrape by with a win. Anyone making USA vs Scotland betting analysis will see the Americans can’t afford another performance of that magnitude.

AJ MacGinty and Tommaso Boni will both be key contributors for the United States.

Scotland Ready to Rumble

Scotland has been a tackling machine over the past year. The Bravehearts have the highest tackling success rate of any Tier 1 team in rugby over the past 12 months. Scotland is successful on 89.4 percent of its tackles.

The Scots are also hard to bring down. Scotland has evaded 25 percent of tackles, which is a higher margin than any other nation other than New Zealand.

USA vs Scotland Betting Prediction

The rugby pickup line shows that Scotland is battle-tested. Playing in the Six Nations competition will do that for you. The United States rugby program is filled with die-hard fanatics of the sport, but the Eagles’ talent pool is weakened by not having as many athletes available due to the other sports available in the United States.

Back Scotland to avoid a repeat of the 2018 embarrassment by taking the United States out by a large margin. Hope you enjoyed this USA vs Scotland betting analysis and good luck with your Rugby betting picks!
