Bet on the bronze match of the 2015 Rugby World Cup with the best South Africa vs Argentina odds!
South Africa meets Argentina on Friday night in the London Olympic Stadium to determine third place in the 2015 Rugby World Cup. The Springboks are the saddest side from those two, since outright favourites New Zealand were only able to beat them by two points in the semis, while Australia easily dispatched Los Pumas. However, this difference doesn’t appear in South Africa vs Argentina odds.
Springboks to win – Your safe bet amongst South Africa vs Argentina odds
The Springboks are strong favourites of the bronze match with internet betting odds of 1.30 (3/10), while Los Pumas are 3.40 (12/2) underdogs, according to BetVictor. Simply putting all your money on Heyneke Meyer’s team could already bring some income. However, you could boost the stakes by going for a small handicap victory, and this still would be a safe bet. Especially as BetVictor offer the best online betting odds for a -4 Springboks handicap win.
Safe bet: South Africa -4 for 1.53 (8/15)
Backing the Springboks for a big margin win is the real deal
Argentina have serious injury problems that forced national team coach Daniel Hourcade to make nine changes in his starting line-up before the game. Meanwhile South Africa will miss only two players from the line-up that came close to beat New Zealand in the semifinal. Looking at the build-up, there is a sense of a Springboks overrun, so why not to take advantage of the great South Africa vs Argentina odds offered by BetVictor on the online betting handicap markets?
Prediction: South Africa -8 for 1.91 (10/11)
Player to watch: Victor Matfield
Victor Matfield prepares for his 127th international game for South Africa, that would be his last appearance one for his nation. National team coach not only recalled the 38-year-old to the starting line-up, but also named him as captain. Matfield was the man of the match in the 2007 Rugby World Cup final against England as he helped the Springboks to their second title with his brilliant display.
Though this is a longshot, BetVictor has the best offer around for the captain scoring a try against Argentina.
Matfield to score a try: 13.00 (12/1)
