Match prediction 40 of 48 of our Rugby World Cup 2023 betting series.
Steven's prediction accuracy 2023: ✔️ 84.84%.
We're already at the last test of the pool stage of the Rugby World Cup 2023. Closing out the pools on Sunday, the 8th of October will be Fiji v Portugal. There will be a big sense of occasion at the Stade de Toulouse, and we can expect palpable knife-edge tension for the first whistle at 8 p.m.
Seeing things run smoothly for the last game before the knock-out stage will be Luke Pearce of the RFU. He will be assisted by Jaco Peyper and Pierre Brousset on the touchlines and Ben Whitehouse from the TMO bunker.
Fiji and Portugal have met twice on the pitch before this outing, with the Pacific islanders going home with two wins. Will the Flying Fijians come up with the goods again or will Portugal find out that third time's the charm? We shall soon see with my Fiji v Fiji prediction.

🔍 Fiji v Portugal Winner Prediction
Neither team particularly turns heads on the world rugby stage - especially given that they find themselves eighth and 16th in the rankings respectively - but this will still be a big game for pool C as it will determine whether Australia or Fiji will qualify to the knock-out stages.
Fiji have so far had a decent enough Rugby World Cup campaign. They may have been shy of the mark against Wales in week one in what was still a tight match, but they came alive against Australia, 15-22 and against Georgia, 17-12. Compared to Portugal's run of two losses and a draw against Wales, 28-8; against Georgia, 18-18; and against Australia, 34-14, I think the Fijians will be in high spirits in the approach to this match.
All in all, the Pacific islanders are the favourites to romp all 80 minutes of this test, and I can't see any other result happening. My money is on a win for Fiji by 22 points.
✔️ Fiji v Portugal Betting Tips
1️⃣ Match Winner: Fiji to Win
Fiji to win at 1.06 at BoyleSports seems to be the best match winner option for what I am predicting, but those odds are nowhere near to my taste. Let's move onto something a little more interesting.
2️⃣ Handicap Winner: Fiji to Win (-21)
As I think this is going to be a 22-point game to the favourites, I believe Fiji to win (-21) at 1.91 at BoyleSports offers good value for money. That being said, as we all know, there are no guarantees in rugby, and there are always surprises during the Rugby World Cup. Be safe. Be sensible. Gamble responsibly.
