Italy Six Nations Betting Odds

This is the 11th season that Italy have taken part in the Six Nations and they have managed to produce some big upsets in the rugby betting in that time.

Despite being out to 250/1 in the Six Nations betting to win the championship, they are more than capable of giving the other five nations a run for their money.

Admittedly, they hardly set the tournament on fire last season, but did produce an excellent performance to beat Scotland 16-12.

They also ran England close, but were unable to upset the Six Nations betting odds, with England eventually running out 17-12 winners, with a late Johnny Wilkinson drop-goal securing the win.

Italy may have ‘won’ the wooden spoon for the past three seasons, but as well as seeing off Scotland last season, the Azzurri have a habit of running the other nations close – even upsetting the odds by beating Wales in 2007.

With games against Wales, France and Ireland at the Stadio Flaminio in the year’s Six Nations, backing Italy in the rugby betting to spring a surprise in those games could certainly be worth a bet.

For those of you who have no faith in the Italians, you can back them to finish bottom of the table at odds of 1/3 in the Six Nations betting.

A £25 bet on Italy to win the Six Nations could see a return of £2,675! New Ladbrokes customers can sign up here for a free £25 bet.
