Betiton UK Six Nations Betting Markets

6 nations betting markets banner

Rugby is one of the most popular sports in the United Kingdom for people to place bets on, and one of the main reasons for this popularity is its market variety. They say that variety is the spice of life, and that is certainly true when it comes to betting on sports. With this in mind, below we are going to provide you with five of the most popular markets with regard to Six Nations rugby betting.

Match Winner

With a match winner bet, what you need to do is try to predict which team will win the match. This bet type has become really popular due to its simplicity. If your selected team wins the match, your wager is a successful one. If your selected team loses or draws, your bet will be lost.

Outright Winner

With the outright winner bet, you are betting on the team that you think will go on to win the whole competition, and not just an individual match. When it comes to such bets, it is wise to put your money down as soon as possible since the Six Nations winner odds will shorten with each passing match.

Draw No Bet

With this market, you are also betting on a team to go on and win a particular match, but there is added insurance in play. This is because if the match ends in a draw, you will get your wager back in full. If your chosen team loses, your stake is also lost. The odds for such a market will not be as high as the match winner one due to this added insurance.

Total Points

With a total points market, we will give you a number, such as 30.5, and then you need to decide whether the final number of points score in the match will be higher or lower. If you think there will be at least 31 points scored, opt for “Over“. If you think there will be 30 or fewer points scored, opt for “Under“.

Winning Margin

If you place a winning margin bet, then what you are doing is placing a bet on the number of points that the winning team will win by. Your bookmaker will give you a variety of points ranges, and you have to choose the one that the eventual winning points tally will slot into. Due to the difficulty of this market, you will often find some top rugby Six Nations betting odds.

Betiton UK Six Nations Bet Types

Above we gave you five highly popular Six Nations betting markets, but there are many other fun markets that British rugby bettors can try their luck with. Below we have given you a list of some other betting options that rugby fans like to consider when the Six Nations rolls around:

  • Handicap betting: If the odds are unfavourable due to a perceived gulf in class between two teams, then you can opt to level the playing field by giving one team a points disadvantage or advantage. If you want to rule out the possibility of a draw ruining your bet, then there is the Asian handicap option.
  • Half-time/Full-Time: With this market, you are tasked with predicting the team that will be winning at half-time and the team that will be winning at full-time. There are nine different options, and the odds will usually be pretty enticing.
  • Half with most points: Here you as tasked with predicting the half that will see the most points scored. If you think that the first-half will be a war of attrition with things opening up in the second half, then bet on the second half. If you feel momentum will be lost when substitutions are made, then consider betting on the first.
  • First tryscorer: In football, you can bet on the first player to score, and in rugby you can place money on who you think will score the game’s first try. Their team does not need to win the match in order for your wager to be a successful one.

Six Nations Betting Odds Explained by Betiton UK

Six Nations betting odds, or any odds for that matter, indicate the likelihood of a particular outcome happening. They also indicate the amount that can be potentially won if you decide to place any money on that outcome. Odds can come in three different formats, and we have briefly explained them below for you.

  • Decimal odds: This is the default format at Betiton, and it highlights the total payout on offer and not the total profit. For example, if you were to put Β£10 on France to be the 6 Nations winners at odds of 2.10 and they win, then the odds tell you that you will receive Β£21.00 back – your Β£10 stake and Β£11 worth of profit.
  • Fractional odds: The number indicates the money that can be won for every Β£1 that is wagered. For instance, if you wager Β£10 at odds of 3/1 and your team wins, you will receive Β£40 – your Β£10 wager and Β£30 profit.
  • American odds: Such odds are unique as they have plus and minus signs. The former highlights the underdogs and tells you the amount that can be won from a $100 bet, while the latter highlights the favourites and tells you what you need to wager in order to land $100.

N.B. We offer all three formats at Betiton UK, and you can toggle between them at the top of the page.

Heading into the 2024 Six Nations, France are the favourites to win the 6 Nations, while Ireland are not too far behind in the early rugby odds Six Nations. England and Scotland are predicted to be battling it out for third place, while Wales and Italy are not given much hope of coming anywhere close to claiming the title.

Ireland will be confident of retaining the title that they won in 2023, especially since France will be missing some talented players that have opted to sit of the 2024 edition in order to focus on playing Rugby Sevens at the Olympics in Paris. For instance, Antoine Dupont, one of the best players in the world, will not be available for France.

The opening match of the tournament sees Ireland take on France in Marseille, and this match could very well determine the eventual winners of the 2024 Six Nations.

Our Six Nations Betting Tips

Now that you know the schedule for the 2024 Six Nations, the most popular rugby betting markets, and how the different odds formats work, we are now going to give you some top Six Nations betting tips. Some novice bettors like to place random wagers and hope that luck is with them, but we do not recommend this strategy.

  • Check out a team’s form: Before making use of our Six Nations odds, make sure that you take the time to check out the form that a team is in. We do not recommend gambling on a team that has been on a bit of a losing streak.
  • Look at the recent head-to-head record: Sometimes a team just seems to have the wood over another and this can be due to psychological reasons that are hard to shake. If you see that a team has a poor recent record against their opponents, it is better to wager on something else.
  • Check out suspensions and injuries: Rugby is a brutal sport at time, so it stands to reason that players will get injured and be out for lengthy spells. Additionally, players can get sent off for dangerous play and receive long bans. Therefore, before betting on a match, you need to see whether a team is missing key players – this will obviously decrease their chances of winning.
  • Look at the weather forecast: If you are betting on a market such as the total points that will be scored, then you have to take the weather into consideration. If conditions are wet, then teams will look to win by kicking penalties since running rugby becomes difficult. If the conditions are dry, then the backs can come into play and more attacking rugby can be played, meaning more points should be scored.
