ENGLAND VS FRANCE RUGBY LEAGUE BETTING TIPS
England are absolutely titanic favourites to destroy France today, something I imagine many of us will take some pleasure from watching. UK bookmaker William Hill is paying out a mere 1/100 on an England victory. This isn't a matter of who will, it's a matter of how much. France are 16/1 if you're feeling adventurous or you've never watched rugby before. You can also back a draw at 50/1. Good luck with that.
The general consensus is that the English side need to cover a 36 point handicap. You can back England at 10/11 (-36.0) and that's not bad value in my book. However, I think the real cash here is in the winning margin betting. There are some absolutely quality prices here on very believable margins of victory.
You can back England to win by 26-30 points at 11/2, or you can back them to win by 36-40 at 7/1. Check out William Hill for the full listing, but let's just say if England can beat France by 76-80 points, you're looking at a 100/1 payout.
If you think 4 point margins are too short, you can get in on the dozen winning margins. England to win by 1-12 pays out at 8/1, but a victory by 13+ is an extremely short 1/20.
Ryan Hall is the favoured scorer for England at 8/1 to score first or last and 1/2 anytime. Tom Briscoe is at 9/1 and 4/7 anytime. Lee Smith, Danny McGuire, Michael Shenton and Shaun Briscoe are all at 12/1 to score first or last and between 8/11-10/11 for an anytime score.
If you're looking for a bet that's above evens, check out England (-40.0) at 5/4.
