Super Rugby Pacific Semifinal Tips
Friday 14/6/24
5:05pm Blues vs Brumbies @ Eden Park
The Blues have been one of the best teams throughout the Super Rugby season, and that’s why they’re favoured to beat the Brumbies.
They are $1.14 favourites with head-to-head markets, with the Brumbies at $5.20 and +11.5 with spread markets.
The only Australian team left in the competition aren’t being given much respect despite beating the Highlanders with ease last week.
However, that’s mostly because the Kiwi teams have a significant edge over their Australian counterparts, and winning in Auckland always proves tough for the Brumbies.
We believe the Blues will win the game, but covering the spread could be tough. They will need to play their best to cover the spread, and we think the Brumbies are good enough to keep it close.
Their captain has issued a challenge to his teammates to muscle up against the Blues, and that’s where the game will be won. The Brumbies need to be physical with the Blues, who could dominate the middle of the park and let their outside backs loose.
Back the Brumbies +11.5, as it could be a rain-affected pitch, which favours a close low-scoring game.
Betting tip: Brumbies +11.5 @ $1.90

2:35pm Hurricanes vs Chiefs @ Wellington Regional Stadium
The Hurricanes are the $1.48 favourites to hold down the fort at home, but writing off the Chiefs would be a mistake.
The Chiefs have more experience playing in Super Rugby semifinals, and we believe that will make the ultimate difference on Saturday afternoon.
The Chiefs scored a 43-21 win over the Queensland Reds last week, and that win was stronger than the Hurricanes beating the Rebels 47-20.
However, the Hurricanes finished top of the Super Rugby ladder with 12 wins from 14 games, whereas the Chiefs had just nine wins.
That’s why the Hurricanes, along with home field advantage, are –4.5 favourites, but we can’t take the short odds for the favourites.
There is much better value with the Chiefs at $2.54, who have some classy All Blacks players throughout the lineup, and that experience is tough to overlook.
“I’m not sure their guys have been in this situation for a while, so I feel like the experience and leadership we’ve had in the last few years will hold us in good stead to prepare well, and go out there and put our best foot forward,” said Chiefs assistant coach David Hill.
Most of the early money has come for the Chiefs at +4.5, which has firmed into $1.86. That’s a good sign, so it’s best to take the value odds available before they shorten.
The Chiefs at $2.54 could firm to around $2.35 on game day, so there is excellent value with the moneyline price.
Betting tip: Chiefs @ $2.54
