Samoa vs Fiji Preview
Samoa are favourites for this match with a five-point handicap given. These are normally exciting contests, but I can see Fiji getting within handicap with a win quite possible for the visitors.

Head to Head
Fiji have won five of their last six matches against Samoa. However, it was Samoa who beat Fiji in their last outing in 2022 by 23-20.
Samoa Form
Samoa come into this clash full of confidence after a victory over the more fancied Japan last weekend.
In a tight contest, Samoa came out on top 24-22. It was a big win considering their form over recent seasons.
Samoa Team News
Like their opponents, Samoa are likely to rotate this week to give players game time.
Fiji Form
Fiji have enjoyed a good year to date. During Super Rugby, their franchise, Fijian Drua finished within the playoff spots which surprised many.
While it isn’t exactly the same side as their overseas players are now available again, it does show that Fiji are building some depth.
Last weekend Fiji beat Tonga 36-20 at home. It was a convincing performance against strong Tongan side.
Fiji Team News
Despite winning last week Fiji are expected to make changes for this clash. The key is the World Cup later this year so rotation is almost guaranteed.
Verdict
I am backing Fiji to cover the +5 handicap and possibly come away with the win.
