Italy vs England Prediction & Betting Tips - Six Nations
by Indran | in Six Nations Predictions
Italy play their first home match in this year’s Guinness Six Nations when they host England at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Both teams are coming of away defeats in the first round with Italy losing 37-10 to France while England were beaten 20-17 by Scotland. Italy looked good for large parts of their match against France only to lose concentration at crucial moments. They have now extended their own unwanted record of 30 matches without a win in the Six Nations. Italy have played England 28 times since their first meeting in 1991 but have never tasted victory against them. They will be buoyed by the last time they played at home when they beat Uruguay. This victory ended a run of nine consecutive home defeats. Italy have only won twice in their last 16 home matches and both those wins were against Tier Two nations.
England will be scratching their heads and wondering how they lost their opening match against Scotland. They were well in control before some strange substitutions and a moment of madness from Luke Cowan-Dickie presented the come from behind win to the Scottish. There will no doubt be a backlash from England and they will be going all out for a bonus point victory. Anything less than five points will be regarded as a failure. England last four visits to the Italian capital has seen them win their matches with an average victory margin of 33 points per match.

Our Italy vs England Prediction
This match has become one of the more lopsided matches in international rugby and unfortunately for the Italians this English team will be looking for redemption following their first round defeat. The substitution of Marcus Smith was a turning point in the last match. If he plays the full eighty minutes then we are backing England to cover the -24 handicap by leading at halftime and winning by more than 24 points.
