Force vs. Reds Predictions - Super Rugby Week 14 2026

We have Force vs. Reds predictions for Super Rugby Week 14 on Saturday, May 16 at 7:35pm at HBF Park.

Ending the week are the Force vs. Reds, where the Force are slight favourites to win the all-Australian contest.

Best Bet

Force –2.5 @ $1.90

It’s tough to know how the Force will play every week, but they always improve when playing at home, and the –2.5 line is generous enough to include in Super Rugby picks.

They scored a tough win over the Waratahs two weeks ago before losing to the Brumbies, but a few things didn’t go their way in that game, and they should appreciate being at HBF Park for this contest.

The Reds aren’t travelling too well after losing 31-21 to the Chiefs, and bouncing back from a loss to the Chiefs isn’t easy. It was a physical game, which can take a few weeks to overcome, so the Force should be there to pounce.

We’re happy to take the –2.5 line before it moves on game day, and it’s worth including in Super Rugby multi bets.

Same Game Multi

Force -2.5, Dylan Pietsch Anytime Try Scorer, Zac Lomax Anytime Try Scorer, Under 55.5 Points @ $8.80

Bet Now

We have backed Dylan Pietsch and Zac Lomax a few times this year, and we’re not about to drop them just yet. Pietsch has four tries from his last four games, and after not scoring last week, he will be keen to score at $1.94.

Former NRL star Lomax should also be seeking a try. It has taken him a few games to figure out the differences between league and union, but it could start resulting in tries. He is another player at $1.94 to score a five-pointer.

We don’t have the Reds scoring too many points, so under 55.5 is a good multi bet addition.

Best Value Bet

Dylan Pietsch First Try Scorer @ $11.00

Bet Now

We have Pietsch getting on the board with an early try for the Force, and he could set the tone for the favourites.

He has at least one try in three of his last four games, and those tries have often come early in the contest. He’s a good finisher, and punters get double-figure odds for him to score first on Saturday night.
