Grasp the thistle

Scotland got off to a flyer when upsetting the odds to beat Ireland at this venue on week one, and made a game of it over in France, for most of the day anyway, before collapsing down the home-straight. Les Bleus ended 22-16 winners on that occasion, but the Scots came out of it with plenty of credit and will fancy their chances of a 100 per cent home record. Wales were beaten by England in a bruising encounter, but they also take heart from their efforts, meaning we are in for a cracker. Home advantage should make the difference at 10/11.

Blues to upset Ireland

France will travel to Ireland looking to push on with their title challenge, after sneaking past Scotland last time. Another victory here would see them keep the pressure on England, and at least make them work for their defence. The locals start as betting favourites, which was probably to be expected, and set-up confident after crushing Italy last time, but we can’t get away from the slow start vs Scotland and Les Bleus must be given a chance at 9/4. That’s a big price in such a close contest.
