Ladbrokes: Ireland to beat Australia
A defeat to New Zealand coupled with a laboured win over Japan means Ireland are yet to really get going in the Autumn Internationals so far. A more convincing win over Australia at the Aviva Stadium would remind everyone of their World Cup 2027 credentials once more, with the Wallabies hurting after losing in Italy. We have gone with a win for the Irish in the match betting market, though a bigger margin of victory could be the way to go if you’re feeling brave.

Ladbrokes: Wales to beat Japan
After a humbling defeat to Argentina last weekend, Wales will have a much better chance to record only their second win of 2025 when they host Japan. Wales’ only other previous win of the year came against the Cherry Blossoms in June to end an 18-match losing streak and should be confident, but this match holds even higher importance, with the loser likely to fall outside the top 12 rankings and thus end up with a tougher group in the World Cup 2027 draw in December. With a packed out Principality Stadium roaring them on, Wales should do what they need to do to secure that spot.

Ladbrokes: South Africa to beat Italy with -21.5 handicap
Italy kick off the weekend as they welcome world champions South Africa to Turin, with the hosts on a high after a famous 26-19 win over Australia last weekend. The victory undoubtedly signals Italy’s growing rise as a force in world rugby, but South Africa is a different level of opponent, with the Springboks themselves coming off the back of a thrilling win over France. With South Africa heavy favourites for this encounter, a handicap of -21.5 ensures value in your accumulator pick.

Argentina’s strong recent strong form give them the edge. Wales, despite home advantage and a new coach, remain inconsistent and vulnerable to the Pumas’ physicality and flair.

South Africa’s recent edge over France and their superior forward platform give them the winning margin. France’s home crowd and attack threaten, but disruptive Bok defence and experience in tight Test conditions should tip the balance in a close match.

Australia’s strong head-to-head record and experience give them the edge, despite Italy’s home support. Italy remain vulnerable to southern-hemisphere power, while Australia should execute with greater consistency and physicality.

England’s home venue, recent strong form and head-to-head dominance over Fiji set the tone. Fiji’s flair and upset potential are real, but England’s depth, discipline and platform control should ensure a comfortable win.
