- Italy beat Romania in their last match.
- Romania lost by 50 points to Georgia last week.
- Romania have lost their last 2 matches.
Head to Head
Italy beat Romania 45-13 in their last outing which took place in 2022.
Italy Form
Italy are a strange case at this point. They are playing some of their best rugby in years but still finished bottom and winless in the 2023 Six Nations.
However, Italy pushed all the sides to the wire in those defeats and should be really competitive come the World Cup. Italy have lost their two warm-up games so far but were strong in both encounters.
The Italians went down 25-13 in Scotland and then 33-17 in Ireland. This week they should have no issue seeing off the opposition.
Italy Injuries & News
Italy are likely to give fringe players a run this week, although some first-choice players will be starting.
Romania Form
Romania rugby is in a pretty dark place at the moment. Development in the country has almost come to a halt with their team largely made up of veterans.
Two weeks ago Romania lost to the USA at home, a team that did not qualify for the 2023 Rugby World Cup. However, last week things got worse as Romania were hammered 56-6 by Georgia.
Romania Injuries & News
There will be plenty of changes to Romania’s side after last week's disappointing performance.
Verdict
I am looking at Italy to win convincing, covering the -31 handicap.
