Best Bets

✅ Best Bet: New Zealand to Win

💰 Value Bet: Bulls +27.5 Handicap

Why We Like This Bet

The All Blacks have shown their attacking quality during the tour, scoring 92 points in their opening two matches, while their defence has conceded just 21. However, the Bulls present a much stronger challenge and will benefit from playing at altitude in Pretoria.New Zealand have greater international experience and should eventually pull away, but the Bulls have enough quality to remain competitive for long periods. We expect the All Blacks to win, although the home side should stay within the handicap.The Bulls have plenty of attacking threats so the All Blacks defence will need to be at its best otherwise the likes of Thaakir Abrahams and Stravino Jacobs could hurt them. 

Prediction: New Zealand to win 38-19
