Updated: 2024Ireland and Russia line up against each on the 3rd of October at the Misaki Stadium in Kobe, and there looks to be only one possible winner in this upcoming fixture. The 2019 Rugby World Cup will be well underway by the time these two sides step out onto the pitch and we’re predicting that both teams will be at either end of the table, Ireland at the top and Russia sitting at the bottom.
The Irish will be hoping that their ticket to the knockout stages will have already been secured and even if Ireland find themselves in a comfortable position in Pool A, all signs will still be pointing towards an Ireland win unless Russia can pull off one of the biggest upsets of the tournament.

Ireland Looking ahead
Ireland opened up their tournament with a solid 27-3 win against Scotland and they are going to be a tough team to beat for any opposition. The game against Russia should not create too many problems for them and they’ll likely be paying more attention to their game against Samoa nine days after. The Irish might end up needing a win against Samoa depending on how well they play against Japan. Either way, the Irish should come out as easy winners against the Russians when the two sides meet on the 3rd of October, with this in mind there won’t be much value in regards to backing Ireland as they’ll be clear favourites to win.
Russia Playing for pride
Russia’s opener against hosts Japan wasn’t an easy game by any stretch of the imagination, but it was likely the only game where they could have possibly picked up some points, however, the Japanese proved too strong and beat Russia 30-10. The latest outing for Russia was against Samoa and this was one-sided yet again, as most people predicted, and they ended up losing 34-9. The Russians expectations for the game against Ireland will be to keep the scoreline respectable and so that’s where you could find some betting value.
