NEW ZEALAND VS SCOTLAND RUGBY UNION BETTING TIPS

maniat_2

The All Blacks are venturing to Scotland in the latest Rugby Union international face-off. Scotland's captain Mike Blair doesn't sound 100% confident about a victory, but you can definitely be confident that the Scots will give them a game. The All Blacks sport a reshuffled look and there should be some new faces in this game. Blair expects the New Zealand backline to be especially problematic.

MAKING HISTORY

A Scotland victory in this match, however unlikely it may seem, is still a distinct possibility after you consult popular bookmakers. Interestingly enough should Scotland secure the victory, it will be the first time that they have actually beaten New Zealand. Seemingly, Scotland will be relying on Jason White, Simon Taylor and Nathan Hines (who are all returning to the squad) who all have 50 caps between them. Their experience will be key if Scotland are to secure the unlikely victory.

Nathan Hines himself made his Scotland debut eight years ago, against the All Blacks.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Betfair is confident that New Zealand will take this one, but there are several other factors that could generate some profit for Scottish rugby fans. Scotland are listed at 2.8 to score first from a penalty. They are listed at 5 to score first from a try. New Zealand to score first from a try pays 2.12 and a New Zealand Penalty is listed at 2.58. Scotland to take a lead into half-time and lose in the second half is paying 6.
