Match prediction 35 of 48 of our Rugby World Cup 2023 betting series.
Steven's prediction accuracy 2023: ✔️ 84.84%.
In the third match of the last week of the Rugby World Cup pool stage, fans will get to see Wales v Georgia. The action will kick off on Saturday, the 7th of October at 2 p.m. at the Stade de la Beaujoire.
Keeping the match in order will be Mathieu Raynal on the pitch, Ben O'Keeffe and Pierre Brousset in touch, and Brendon Pickerill in the TMO bunker.
The Welsh have taken on the Georgians four times in history, but the interesting fact is that the last time both teams came together, Georgia managed their first win (by a single point) to take the record to 3-1 on a big night in Cardiff. Wales have also all but qualified for the knock-out stages and Warren Gatland will be making six changes for this run-out, so will the eastern Europeans be in with a shot, to end their Rugby World Cup campaign in style? We best find out with my Wales v Georgia prediction.

🔍 Wales v Georgia Winner Prediction
Prior to this year's Rugby World Cup, the home nation had earned the nickname Woeful Wales, yet here we are in the last week of the opening stage with them top of Pool C. They also stand at seventh in the world rankings, ten places above their rivals.
Wales will also have the greater benefit of the 16th man in the stands, as the harmonious voices of their travelling fans will likely drown out any response from the Georgians.
The key factor that could upset the balance in this game is the number of changes the Head Coach, Warren Gatland has made to the side. Dewi Lake will take up the captaincy as co-skipper Jac Morgan is rested, and five others will swap in to start instead of the usual suspects: Rio Dyer on the wing, Tomas Williams at scrum-half, Gareth Anscombe at fly-half, Dayfydd Jenkins at lock, and Tommy Refell at flanker. Do I see this as a threat to Wales's chances of coming away with the win, though? Given that France did similar and were able to make 12 changes to their side after their match against New Zealand, coming away with a win against Uruguay, I don't see this as a problem for the Welsh, given that they are playing a tier-two side.
I would like to say that this will be a close match, but I doubt it. At least this won't go down as another 96-0 game in this Rugby World Cup. I am predicting Wales to walk back to the changing rooms after 80 minutes with smiles suited to a 22-point difference.
✔️ Wales v Georgia Betting Tips
1️⃣ Match Winner: Wales to Win
Nothing controversial here: I think it's going to be a win for the Welsh. Does that mean I would go for Wales to win at 1.08 at BoyleSports? It is the best option from my favourite bookies, but the odds are still too short for my taste.
2️⃣ Handicap Winner: Wales to Win (-18.5)
So, if I think that Wales are going to win by 22 points, what would seem to be your best option? I would be tempted to have a go on Wales to win (-18.5) at 1.90 at Unibet. That even gives a little bit of wiggle room if the final score difference is slightly less than I am predicting. Nevertheless, it is important to remember that I am not saying there is no risk involved with my recommendation. With rugby betting, there is always a chance things may not go your way, so please remember to gamble responsibly if you have a flutter.
