🔍 Italy v Namibia Winner Prediction

There is only one match at which we are able to look for our prediction winner. In that case, 47-22 suggests a win for gli Azzurri. What if we look at the world rankings? 13^th against 21^st still screams of a win for Italy. What about squads with players in the highest levels of club rugby or that regularly play against tier-one nations? At this stage, my Italy v Namibia analysis is blue in the face with an obvious winner. There's no other way around it for me: I'm going with a win for Italy by at least 17 points.

✔️ Italy v Namibia Betting Tips

1️⃣ Match Winner: Italy to Win

The best odds you have on offer are Italy to win at 1.02 at Unibet. I suppose we could try to get excited that there are odds for an Italian win at all, but I'm afraid I'm coming down on the side of cynicism and saying this market is not for me.

2️⃣ Handicap Winner: Namibia to Win (+30)

My Italy v Namibia prediction is that the Europeans will smash this game by at least 17 points. How much higher will the score difference go? I don't image much, so I think it could be worth a punt of Namibia to win (-30) at 1.91 at BoyleSports. Be warned, though! If Italy decide to put out their first team, perhaps to prove a point about their rugby prowess to the rest of the world, this score difference could easily rocket over 30 points. Weigh up your options before risking your hard-earned money, and remember, if you decide to go for it, to gamble within your means.
