Six Nations 2011 Betting Odds Make England Favourites Ahead Of France
Friday 04 February 2011 at 10:52
England are the pre tournament Six Nations 2011 Betting Odds favourites in what looks one of the most competitive Six Nations tournaments from recent years.
England And France Look Good Grand Slam Bets History Suggests
England have not won the Six Nations since completing the Grand Slam in 2003, that was the end of a dominant spell that saw them win the Six Nations in three out of four years. France have been the dominant team since then, winning four out of the last seven tournaments and it is no real surprise to see the two sides dominate the betting, England look to have a great chance this year and can be backed at 15/8 with Boylesports, Coral, 888Sport and Blue Square whilst France are available at best price of 13/5 with SkyBet, Victor Chandler and Totesport. If you fancy either team to do the Grand Slam (both sides completed the Grand Slam last time they won the Six Nations) you can get 5/1 with SkyBet on England and 13/2 with SkyBet on France.
Ireland The Best Of The Rest With Grand Slam Apparently Unlikely
The bookies seem pretty confident that there won't be a Grand Slam this year, despite the last three Six Nations tournaments being won with a Grand Slam and seven out of the last nine also being won with a Grand Slam, it is a bit of a winder why no Grand Slam is so short at 4/6 with William Hill. There is unlikely to be a Grand Slam is the Six Nations isn't won by England or France, if both those sides miss out Ireland are the most likely winners at 3/1 with Bet365, who offer up to £200 in free bets to new customers, Wales are 17/2 with Sportingbet, Scotland are 16/1 with Bet365 and the complete outsiders are unsurprisingly Italy who are 300/1 with Totesport.
