Six Nations 2025 preview

Ireland - 7/4

It's no surprise to see Ireland installed as 7/4 favourites to win the 2025 Six Nations.

Under Andy Farrell, Ireland clinched back-to-back championships in 2023 and 2024, with only a narrow defeat to England preventing them from completing successive Grand Slams.

There's also an added bonus in that the Irish take on both France and England in Dublin at the Aviva Stadium, which significantly bolsters their chances of claiming a third-straight Six Nations title.

However, with head coach Farrell now on duty with the British and Irish Lions, Simon Easterby will take charge for this year's tournament. Could that jeopardise their chances?

France - 2/1

France, the 2022 champions, are considered Ireland's closest rivals, at odds of 2/1 with Betfred - no huge shock given they have finished second to Farrell's side in the last two competitions.

Despite a turbulent 2024 campaign that included a surprising draw against Italy, Fabien Galthie's men have built some momentum heading into this competition following victories over Japan, Argentina and that incredible 30-29 win against New Zealand at the Stade de France in November.

Les Bleus, who ended the Autumn Nations Series as the only undefeated Six Nations side, boast an immensely talented squad and the return of superstar Antoine Dupont will further bolster their chances.

England - 7/2

England enter this tournament as somewhat of an enigma as they go in search of a first Six Nations title since 2020.

Steve Borthwick's talented crop of players - spearheaded by new captain Maro Itoje - have shown flashes of brilliance over the last 12 months, including last year's win over Ireland at Twickenham.

But consistency remains elusive.

They've conspired to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory on several occasions in recent months, most notably against the All Blacks and Wallabies during the Autumn Nations Series.

Borthwick's side don't have any time to waste, they'll need to hit the ground running with a trip to Dublin followed by France in their opening two games of the competition.

Scotland - 11/2

Scotland's odds of 11/2 underscore their rising competitiveness.

Gregor Townsend's team has impressed with back-to-back Calcutta Cup victories over England, yet their ability to maintain high performance levels throughout the tournament remains a question.

Scotland beat England 30-21 at Murrayfield last year before a second-half collapse in Rome saw Italy secure their first Six Nations home win since 2013.
