France vs England Betting Analysis
France believes it has things figured out
For the first time in five years, France isn’t making any changes to its lineup. For those making Six Nations predictions, it seems that France feels good after its win over Wales in its last match. People making a France vs England betting analysis will see that France will likely trot out a heavier lineup against England this year.
Last year, France dominated England with a 53-10 victory. Nolann Le Garrec, Nicolas Depoortere, Louis Bielle-Biarrey and Leo Barre all played well for France last week and figure to be a big part of the match against England.
England ready to build off momentum
England will add Elliot Daly into the lineup. Daly being chosen to play was due to an injury to the English team. Tommy Freeman will also make his first international start for England. Some quick thinking helped England spring the upset over Ireland.
Marcus Smith kicked a drop goal late in the game to propel England to the victory. England ended up finishing with a 3-1 advantage in tries over Ireland. England did struggle to take advantage of other scoring opportunities and missed seven points off the tee.
That’s a trend England can’t afford to continue against Ireland.

France vs England Betting Prediction
Anyone making France vs England betting analysis can see that both sides are coming off strong performances during their last match. It may be tempting to want to back England after stopping Ireland’s 11-match losing streak.
However, rugby teams sometimes see their momentum slide after a big win like that. France will lean on its size and home-field advantage to grab a win over England and secure second place. It is unlikely France could catch Ireland, as the Irish are unlikely to lose to second, but second place wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize.
