Argentina v France: Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips - Rugby Union 2024

💯 Argentina v France Betting Odds Summer Internationals

If you are looking to wager on this Argentina vs France encounter, I have some of the best rugby bookmakers that you can sign up with. In the sections that follow, you'll find the latest odds these bookies are offering for the top rugby betting markets.

🥇 Argentina v France Match Winner Odds

Host team, Argentina and France have met each other 53 times, with the latter coming out on top with a total of 38 compared to Argentina who have only won 14 times. These two nations have only drawn on one occasion, so one might steer clear of that market for this weekend's encounter. France also has an excellent record in their matches in Argentina, losing just 9 times in their 32 trips to the South American country. Plus, France was comfortable last time out versus Los Pumas which makes it a surprise that Argentina are the favourites amongst the bookmakers. Check out the match-winner odds for this encounter below:

Team
Argentina	1.56	1.55	1.55	1.57	1.56
Draw	22.00	21.00	21.00	12.00	22.00
France	2.37	2.50	2.50	2.52	2.37

🏮 Argentina v France Asian Handicap Odds

If you don't fancy the odds in the match-winner market, you can take advantage of the Asian Handicap market. This type of market removes the option for a draw which is rare in rugby, and allows you to give either team a points advantage or disadvantage. The table below shows the Asian Handicap betting odds for Argentina vs France.

Asian Handicap
Argentina (-1.5)	-	1.60	1.60	-	-
Argentina (-3.5)	-	1.80	1.80	-	-
Argentina (-5.5)	-	2.00	2.00	-	-
France (+1.5)	-	2.10	2.10	-	-
France (+3.5)	-	1.85	1.85	-	-
France (+5.5)	-	1.66	1.66	-	-

➕ Argentina v France Highest Scoring Half Odds

Rugby has become a popular sport to bet on because there is a wide variety of different markets where you can chance your luck on beating the bookmakers. One of these markets is the highest-scoring half. It's easy to think that this betting market is purely based on luck, but this is not the case. For example, some teams give their best in the first half but perform poorly in the second. Plus, the subs and tactics employed by a team in the second half might have a significant role. Below, I have included the odds for this market:

Highest Scoring Half
First	-	1.84	1.84	1.86	-
Second	-	1.90	1.96	2.00	1.80
Tie	-	26.00	26.00	12.00	-

🔍 Argentina v France Prediction

France is known for producing some of the best rugby players and is one of the best teams in the world, currently ranked 4th, while Argentina has certainly become a top team in recent years. Last weekend, France won its encounter by a comfortable 15 points, but it was still a thrilling match for punters, and I see the French putting up another exciting game this weekend. Below are some factors that could have an effect on the result of this anticipated encounter.

1. History: France has a great record against the Argentinians, whether those matches are home or away. The French have won 72% of their matches against the Pumas and in these matches, they have scored a total of 1,285 points against Argentina's 838. History is pointing at a win for France, and a comfortable one at that.
2. World Rankings: France is currently ranked 4th in the Rugby World with 88.49 points and they were 3rd in the world heading into last year's Rugby World Cup, while Argentina is over eight points behind in 7th place and was 6th heading into the World Cup. Both sides have moved down since last year but still hold strong rankings. The rankings indicate that France has been playing better rugby in previous years and that they are likely to be victorious in this match.
3. Home Advantage: There will be a massive, boisterous home crowd during this match as I find it hard to believe many French fans will make the trip to Argentina even after their side's comfortable win last weekend. As mentioned earlier, the French team has no problem playing on Argentinian soil boasting an impressive record, and I do not see them being impacted by a loud crowd. It is hard to see home advantage having an effect on which side will emerge victorious.
4. Weather: Buenos Aires will be cold on Saturday evening, but it's not going to rain. This is a good thing as both sides will be able to play the exciting rugby that they are known for. The weather will not have an impact on the outcome of this game.
5. Gameplay: Argentina and France play rugby with a hint of excitement and flair and try to quickly get the ball out to their backs, playing entertaining rugby and exciting the crowds in attendance. If they need to involve their forwards, then they will, but you will not see either side using this as their main tactic to score points. This game is expected to be a match where both sides play a lot of running rugby, so the team who can best implement their style has the best chance of getting the victory on Saturday.

This should be an exciting and entertaining game of rugby on a day filled with exciting matches. I expect this game to be tighter this time around but I am tipping France to once again be on the winning side.

✔️ Argentina v France Betting Tips

This section of my Argentina vs France prediction gives you some helpful tips for betting on this weekend's encounter. Remember to gamble responsibly.

1️⃣ Match Winner: France to Win

The French team is surprisingly the underdog in this match, but this is good for punters as it provides a better betting opportunity. Argentina are constantly improving as a rugby team but as mentioned, their record against France is not a good one, and they were comfortably beaten last time out. While I think the Argentinians will give a much better account of themselves this time around, France should have more than enough to be victorious in this match.

If you are interested in placing this bet, I recommend you use GoldenBet Sports, offering odds of 2.52.

2️⃣ Asian Handicap Winner: France (+3.5)

I believe that France will be victorious in this one by a tally of around eight points, but it's hard to predict which Argentina team will show up. Will we get the Argentina who performed poorly last weekend or will we get the Argentina who impressively made it to the 2023 Rugby World Cup Semi Finals? If you are unsure about the French being able to topple the Pumas again, with the bookmakers tipping Argentina, you can opt to give France an Asian Handicap. I recommend a handicap of +3.5 as with this one, France could lose by a penalty and you would still win your wager.

If you agree with this tip, then Sportaza Sports is currently offering odds of 1.85 for this market.

3️⃣ Highest Scoring Half - Second Half

We will likely see more points being scored in the second half of this match as the first 40 minutes will potentially see both teams settling into the match and going for it in the second half. The French are slightly better fit, so this will give them an edge over a tiring Argentinian defence, especially during the game's final quarter.

If you think most points will be scored in the second half, then Goldenbet Sports is offering odds of 1.86.
