Match prediction 7 of 18 of our Summer Internationals 2023 betting series.
Steven's prediction accuracy 2023: ✔️ 86.36%.
The start of week three of the Summer Internationals sees the second match between England v Wales. Saturday, the 12th of August - kick-off at 5.30 p.m. - will see if a home crowd at Twickenham will be celebrating reclaimed glory after losing at the start of this two-parter or if the Welsh will make it a whitewash campaign.
The man officiating this encounter will be Georgian referee Nika Amashukeli, who took charge of last week's late night encounter between Argentina v South Africa.
After a disappointing display of rugby, England look as if they will scrap plans to blood the youngsters and will want to make use of the home advantage by playing a more experienced side. That being said, Warren Gatland may opt for a similar tactic, so both sides will turn up to this Rugby World Cup warm-up with great expectations. Which team will grab another win in the history books? Let me reveal my thoughts for this England v Wales prediction.

🔍 England v Wales Match Winner Prediction
Steve Borthwick is not having a great time of things after last week, with the national and rugby press in the UK already announcing who they think will replace him. The pressure will be immense for him to find a silver lining to a rainy, two-parter cloud. Gatland, on the other hand, is an old war horse who has been through everything that rugby has to offer, and he has won a little sympathy from Welsh rugby fans for picking up the first win against England since 2021. Both Head Coaches see the upside to a win for their team, but I believe only one nation will hold their nerve. England will be desperate for something to inspire the crowd and the fans watching a home, and I believe the combination of a change in tactics, a more experienced side to be fielded, and the pressure of the press will see England go on to a 10-point victory - much like in the Wales v England Six Nations test earlier in the year.
✔️ England v Wales Rugby Betting Tips
1️⃣ Match Winner: England to Win
I see England winning this one, but are the odds worth it? The best value is at LeoVegas Sports, where you grab England to win at 1.22. I think that's fairly reasonable, given that I can't see Wales claiming a second victory. Then again, last week proved that anything can happen in rugby, so make sure you are sensible with your bets!
2️⃣ Handicap Winner: England to Win (-6.5)
The bookies seem to think England are going to win this by 11-13 points. I disagree. Whilst I can see England managing to do the business, I think it will be a 10-point game; therefore, my pick for a handicap winner is England to win at 1.38 at TonyBet Sports.
3️⃣ Both Halves: England to Win Both Halves
Could England win both halves? Potentially. Do I see it happening? I'm not so certain. At odds, at best, of 1.48 for England to win both halves, I personally wouldn't be too interested in this one. Of course, it's up to you how you feel!
