Six Nations 2026 overview and favourites
Pre-tournament favourites France will likely secure the title if they beat England in the final game and therefore remain 1/6 favourites, but those odds are much longer than they previously were after their 50-40 loss to Scotland last weekend which ended hopes of the Grand Slam.
They are level on points with Scotland but with a far superior points difference, meaning a bonus-point win in Paris would guarantee them the title. Anything less and Scotland (7/1) could sneak in to claim their first Six Nations since 1999, but they will need to beat Ireland (6/1) in Dublin to have any chance.
The Irish are two points behind the leading pack, meaning they will need to beat Scotland and hope England can get a result against France to stand any chance.
