Blues vs. Reds Predictions - Super Rugby Week 11 2026

We have Blues vs. Reds predictions for Super Rugby Week 11 on Saturday, April 25 at 5:35pm at Eden Park.

The Blues have a good chance to putting pressure on the top teams, and they are eyeing an easy win over the Reds in Auckland.

Best Bet

Blues -9.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

The Blues did enough to get past the Highlanders last week, and although they only scored by seven points, they were never in doubt of losing.

They now welcome the Reds to Auckland, which won’t be an easy game, but the Blues should have too much scoring power. The Reds can struggle to put points on the board when playing in New Zealand, which is their biggest struggle.

We don’t enjoy betting on the Reds when they travel to New Zealand, and the line is there for the taking. The –9.5 line is better than expected, as the Blues should win by double digits in ideal conditions in Auckland on Saturday.

Same Game Multi

Blues -9.5, Bradley Slater Anytime Try Scorer, AJ Lam Anytime Try Scorer, Over 57.5 Points @ $9.50

Bet Now

Bradley Slater and AJ Lam are worth including in Super Rugby SGM picks. Slater has three tries from his last three games, including a double against the Fijian Drua. He is a $1.98 chance to score, which are better odds than expected.

Punters get $2.35 for Lam to score, which is an excellent price. Lam has four tries in his last four games, and we priced him at $1.90. He can boost odds, and we expect plenty of tries to be scored at Eden Park.

Our final score prediction has the Blues winning 37-23, so over 57.5 points is a good multi bet addition. They are typically high-scoring games when the Blues and Reds meet.

Best Value Bet

Beauden Barrett Anytime Try Scorer @ $2.80

Bet Now

There is value betting on All Blacks’ first five Beauden Barrett to score a try. He’s not a prolific try scorer for the Blues, but he has scored plenty of tries at representative level.

He has plenty of speed for a first five, and we expect the game to open up in the second half, which should allow Barrett to stroll through the defence.

The $2.80 odds are worth including as a Super Rugby value bet.
