Wondering whether you should put your hard-earned money on England taking home the Six Nations Championship trophy this year?
Combining odds with popular opinion, The Bierkeller team explains how likely it is that England will become the victorious nation in 2025.
Has England ever won the Six Nations?
Yes! England has actually kicked and tackled their way to victory seven times since the Five Nations Championship became the Six Nations in 2000 with the addition of Italy, making them the most successful country in the Championship’s history.
However, France, Ireland, and Wales aren’t far behind with each nation having won the title six times.
It’s only Italy and Scotland that have failed to win the Six Nations title since the tournament’s first edition.
Who is favourite to win Six Nations 2025?
Unsure who to put your money on this year?
While opinion varies from bookie to bookie, according to Rugby World, the bookmakers clear favourite is Ireland, with some bookies offering odds of 21/20.
Based on information from the same source, odds for the 2022 champions, France, are priced at 23/10, while England has odds of 4/1 and Scotland’s odds are 9/1.
Meanwhile, Wales is priced at 33/1 and Italy has odds of 200/1.
Who is most likely to win the Six Nations?
While you could base the most probable Six Nations winner on bookmaker odds, it’s also worth doing your own research and getting some expert options.
A handful of sports broadcasters and former rugby players writing for The Guardian have also put forth their opinions on who will win the Six Nations in 2025 and one country seems to come out on top – France.
The sports pundit and former English rugby union player, Ugo Monye, believes France is the most likely winner due to their strong form, but does predict that England won’t be far behind, finishing in second place instead.
Additional reporters for the Guardian, including Michael Aylwin, Andy Bull, Robert Kitson, and Gerard Meagher all predict France to be the 2025 victor, with England either finishing in second or third place.
Can England win the Six Nations?
The odds for England winning might be lower than the likes of France and Ireland, but that’s certainly no reason to give up all hope – especially given England’s impressive history in this tournament!
With everything still to play for, don’t lose faith and reserve your spot in front of a HD TV ready for the next big Six Nations match.
