What to expect from this year’s Rugby World Cup? Check out what bookies think.

Japan is hosting the 2019 Rugby World Cup, which kicks-off on Saturday (September 21). All the betting markets are open and ready to be verified. Let’s find out what top online bookmakers have to offer us this time of a year.

This year’s World Cup is an interesting one. A lot has been going on this summer, rugby fans have seen tons of changes but when it comes to the real deal, who’s really got it?

Top-three favourites among all the top online bookmakers to win the trophy this time are traditional runner-ups. The best price on the winner market is given to New Zealand at Betfred. The bookmaker prices All Blacks at 2.75 (7/4)

Everyone seems to be serious about Japan’s tournament, pushing bookies to offer one of the most intrigue markets. Whether or not the champion will be the first-time winner? Bookmaker Sportsbet.io does not favour underdogs here, giving them only the odds of 3.40 (12/5), while rather sticking to more titled teams, pricing their winning at 1.28 (5/18).

The best value for such a team is, however, offered for Ireland, Wales, France and Argentina. They appear to be the highest priced teams never to win a single title.

The best market prices for Ireland, Wales, France and Argentina among top online bookmakers

  • Ireland - Coral 11.00 (10/1)
  • Wales - Betfair 12.00 (11/1)
  • France - BetVictor 34.00 (33/1)
  • Argentina - Betfair 51.00 (50/1)

If you are not sure which team to back up right now, bookies offer another interesting, less precise market. You only have to guess the winner’s continent there. You can make the most return betting on the team from Oceania at Unibet, as it prices that option at 1.95 (19/20). If you think the winner will be from Europe, Africa or South America, you have to check out the offer of the other top online sportsbooks.

If you are a more of an exotic or special market type of punter than you would need to pay William Hill a visit. This British betting giant prepared tons of exclusive Rugby World Cup future props such as:

  • Any Match To Finish 0-0
  • A Card To Be Shown In Every Pool Match
  • At Least 7 Matches Without A Try Being Scored
  • Any Player To Score Over 8 Tries In The Tournament
