Moana Pasifika vs. Force Predictions

Best Bet

The Force are riding a long losing streak, but every losing streak must come to an end.

They suffered a 42-32 loss against the Blues last week, and although they didn’t get the competition points, scoring 32 points against a tidy Blues outfit is a good performance.

Moana Pasifika suffered a 52-10 loss to the Hurricanes last week, which is a poor form guide. They looked good early in the game, but were overwhelmed by a much better team, and the same could happen on Friday.

There is good value with the Force at $2.45. Bookmakers are underrating the visitors, but they’re steadily improving, so snap up the value.

Same Game Multi

The best-backed player to score a try is Pasifika’s Solomon Alaimalo, who has firmed into $1.75. It’s his Super Rugby debut, and he could make a big impression, so include him in Super Rugby same game multi bets.

Darby Lancaster has two tries from his last three games. He scored against the Brumbies in Week 1, and he should cross for a try.

We expect an open contest, and bookmakers agree. The 64.5-point line is about as high as punters will see for a Super Rugby game and based on their respective defence so far away two weeks, the final score could be around 40-34.

Best Value Bet

Punters get value odds for Lancaster to score the first try, and if the Force want to win the game, they need to get off to a good start.

He looked good when scoring against the Brumbies in the opening week, and when he’s close to the line, he’s tough to stop.

Given Moana Pasifika’s defence, getting early opportunities shouldn’t be hard, and the $11.50 odds are well worth taking before money comes for him on game day.
