New Zealand v South Africa Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips - Summer Internationals Series

💯 New Zealand v South Africa Betting Odds Summer Internationals Series

It wouldn't be a complete rugby prediction of mine without a few odds from top rugby bookmakers. See the key markets below.

🥇 New Zealand v South Africa Odds: Match Winner

I think the match winner odds for this one are interesting, floating, for the most part, around the 1.40 mark. See my comparison below.

Team
New Zealand	1.20	1.42	1.40	1.44	1.46
Draw	23.00	20.83	19.00	18.30	23.00
South Africa	3.00	2.96	2.90	2.69	1.82

➕ New Zealand v South Africa Handicap 3-Way Odds

The bookies don't see a lot of margin in this game, with single figures of 5-6 points showing just how close things may be. The bookmakers have bumped up the odds, however, so this may turn out an interesting market.

🏮 New Zealand v South Africa Asian Handicap Odds

For those that disagree with the bookies and think this game may be much wider on the final scoreboard, there are much longer odds available. Potential reward, however, equates to much more risk. See the full options below.

🔍 New Zealand v South Africa Match Winner Prediction

The history between New Zealand v South Africa, both long- and short-term, predicts that the All Blacks will be the winners of this encounter. Do I agree? I think so. New Zealand have yet to play in the Summer Nations Series, but they have already won the Rugby Championship, back in July, and look in good form to repeat their success in this Rugby World Cup warm-up. That's not completely to write-off South Africa's quality, given that they have already comfortably won two Summer Internationals tests so far - Argentina v South Africa in week two and Wales v South Africa last weekend - but I believe this will only prove to alleviate some of the bruising rather than to prevent it. Overall, I think it's going to be the All Blacks all the way, and I expect to see at least a 10-point gap by the 80-minute mark.

✔️ New Zealand v South Africa Betting Tips

1️⃣ Match Winner: New Zealand to Win

I like this one. I think New Zealand to win at 1.46 at LeoVegas Sports is a competitive price for a straight-up match winner. Both teams are close in quality, and I think it is going to be a close game, so for those that want to leave handicap betting to one side, I think this could be a good bet.

2️⃣ Handicap Winner: New Zealand to Win (-5.5)

I've had to think about this market a lot. I think this will be at least a 10-point game, which has left me umming and ahing about whether I would stick within 10 points and go for New Zealand to win (-5.5) at 1.92 at LeoVegas Sports or would push to New Zealand (-11.5) at 3.00 at Betway. The All Blacks certainly have the quality to beat tier-one teams by 15 or even 20 points, but faced with tougher competiton, I think I am going to err on the side of caution and go with LeoVegas's offer out of the two.

3️⃣ Both Halves: New Zealand to Win Both Halves

Whilst I am tempted by the potential return of New Zealand to win both halves at 1.91 at BoyleSports, I don't think I would go for this market. South Africa will come out fighting before the break, and New Zealand are also renowned for being a team that can grab victory from the jaws of defeat. I think I would give this one a miss, purely because I am unsure of how things will play out.
