British and Irish Lions Tour 2025 - Latest news, odds, results, fixtures, squad and betting guide

One of rugby union's most anticipated events is in full flow as the British and Irish Lions continue their tour of Australia this summer.

Every four years, the best players from England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland team up to take on one of the Southern Hemisphere's best sides in a three-Test affair, with 2025 seeing Andy Farrell's side take on two-time world champions Australia.

The Lions secured the series with a sensational comeback win in Melbourne on Saturday and can secure a historic 3-0 series win with a victory in the Third Test in Sydney this weekend.

Here is all you need to know about the British and Irish Lions Tour so far, including all the results, fixtures and latest odds. You can also check out our preview for the Third Test here.

We were treated to an absolute thriller at the MCG as the Lions came from 23-5 down to win 29-26 for one of the great victories in the history of the tour.

Just when people were questioning whether Australia could compete at this level after a disappointing first Test performance, the Wallabies gave their 90,000-strong crowd something to cheer for as they stunned the tourists with three tries in the first half.

After clawing their way back into the game, Farrell's men secured the victory through Hugo Keenan's 79th-minute try, which was eventually given following a nail-biting TMO review for a clear-out by Jac Morgan in the build-up.

After wrapping up the series, the next aim for the Lions is to go 3-0, and indeed 9-0 for the tour overall, which would be the first time since all the way back in 1927 in Argentina.

Fly-half Finn Russell said:

Everyone here has been gunning for this for their whole career. To get to the Lions is one thing and then to get a series win is another.

This is my third tour and I'd not won one, so it's so special to get this, bringing four nations together to be a family for five, six weeks.

"But it's not job done yet. We need to go and try and finish it off next week. Even though we've got the series, we need to go and finish on a high.
