2010 Calcutta Cup Betting Odds

It doesn’t get much more meatier than a Scotland vs England Calcutta Cup match at Murrayfield. This Saturday the 13th of March sees these two “Auld Enemies” once again lock horns in the second last weekend of the 6 Nations Championship. This year Scotland are once again playing for pride, while England have an outside chance of winning the competition as long as they prevail against the Scots and then carry that momentum forward to Paris against a very strong and fast French side.

Perhaps, it is a game too far for England, to even conceive that they will win in France but by a handsome scoreline as well, leaves most Six Nations betting punters shaking their heads at the task ahead. Still, England have to overcome the Scots on their own turf, something they haven’t been too good at in recent years.

The Scots sit none too proudly at the foot of the table without a point to their name. In a year when once again expectation was fed, by the powers that be within the Scots set-up, to a rugby loving nation and once again those expectations have been sorely let down. Defeats to France, Wales and Italy have been hard to swallow, especially when you have a wooden spoon being shoved down your throat.

England, meanwhile, continue to tread water with Johnson in charge and a defeat against the Scots on Saturday could see the England coach sink under a wave of criticism from the nations press. The Calcutta Cup may be a glimmer of hope for England and a solid foundation to build upon for the upcoming World Cup.
