- Scotland – 15.00
France (1.66)
France are the clear favourites to win the 2026 Six Nations at odds of .166. Le Bleus enter as defending champions and boast one of the most talented squads in the competition. Many bookmakers have the French at odds-on to claim back-to-back championships, with home fixtures, including big clashes against Ireland and England, offering a significant advantage.
France’s attacking flair and depth across both forwards and backs make them a logical pick in the outright markets. Their blend of physicality, skill and the ability to score from broken play gives them strong credentials for the title race, especially if they can maintain consistency throughout the tournament.
Bet on France to win the Six Nations at 1.66.
England (3.40)
With outright odds around 3.40, England are next in line behind France. England’s market positioning suggests they are seen as the primary challengers capable of dethroning Les Bleus. Their recent form has shown resilience, with a strong run of matches leading into the championship.
England’s squad depth and tactical versatility under coach Steve Borthwick have been key factors in their improved competitiveness. Even with some rotation and bench strategic picks, such as Maro Itoje starting on the bench against Wales, England remain a title threat due to their home fixtures and ability to grind out results.

Ireland (7.00)
Ireland’s outright odds of 7.00 reflect their position as a genuine contender, albeit behind France and England in the markets. Historically, Ireland have been strong performers in the Six Nations and were modern-era champions multiple times.
However, recent squad news suggests potential challenges. A number of key players have been ruled out or flagged for selection tweaks heading into the tournament, which could impact Ireland’s ability to string together a championship-winning run.
That said, the Irish are never to be underestimated. Their physical forward play, strong defence, and ability to execute under pressure mean they can upset higher-fancied teams, especially if their squad comes together at the right time.
Bet on Ireland to win the Six Nations at 7.00.
Scotland (15.00)
At around 15.00, Scotland are flying under the radar but can’t be completely discounted. Scotland have shown they can compete with the big sides on their day, particularly at home.
Their betting price reflects a wider perception that Scotland need near-perfect consistency to threaten a Six Nations title, which has historically proven difficult against the competition’s top tier. Still, their odds could provide value in accumulator markets or if you believe they can pick up surprise wins.
