Poland vs Belgium Prediction: A tricky one than it looks on paper

In the Rugby Europe Championship for the 5th to 8th placed spots, Poland will face Belgium at the Stade de Bouin in Paris. Belgium enters as overwhelming favorites, while Poland comes in as underdogs.

Poland

Throughout the tournament, Poland's performance has been subpar. Despite starting with a 8-20 defeat against Romania, they followed with losses to Portugal and Belgium in the group stage. Even in their earlier match for the 5th-8th spot against Netherlands, Poland failed to impress. They haven't won in their last seven games, with their last victory dating back to February 2023 against Belgium.

Belgium

Belgium aims to capitalize on facing a weaker Poland side in this match. While they began the tournament with a surprising 10-6 win over Portugal, they faltered with a 33-18 loss to Romania in the second game. Although they secured a 31-10 victory in the third group stage match, it wasn't enough to advance to the semifinals. In their last game against Germany, Belgium suffered a shocking defeat with a 11-21 scoreline. However, they aim to bounce back, improve their performance, and end the tournament positively.

Expert Betting Tips

While Belgium is heavily favored, Poland still has a chance to narrow the odds. Despite Belgium's recent loss to Germany raising questions about their form, they are still expected to secure a win in this match. However, Poland may be able to close the points spread.
