Super Rugby Round 9: Brumbies vs Force – Tips, Odds & Predictions

Brumbies vs Force, Super Rugby 2020 Round 9

August 28th at 7.05pm – GIO Stadium, Canberra

The Brumbies endured their first loss of the season against the Rebels a couple of weeks ago, and they were quick to prove it was just a blip on the radar in disposing of the in-form Waratahs by 27 points last week. The win kept them two points clear of the Reds on top of the Super Rugby AU table, and they’ll be looking for a big boost to their points differential against the Force this weekend.

The Force were competitive early in their return season to the top level but have gradually been dropping off, and last weekend was their worst performance of the season. They were absolutely no match for the Reds, conceding a whopping 57 points en route to a 52-point loss. They’ll be keen to avoid a repeat, but against an even better team in the Brumbies they might be in for some more hurt.

General Statistics

  • The Brumbies have won their last eight games against the Force.
  • The Force have scored 57 points less than their nearest rival this season, while the Brumbies have been the most difficult side to score against.
  • The Brumbies have two of the four players to have scored at least four tries in 2020 in Folau Fainga’a and Byron Ralston.

Overall Match Prediction

This one could be tough viewing for Force fans. They seem to be losing faith in their ability to compete more and more with each passing week, and last round appeared to be rock bottom as they succumbed to a 52-point defeat. They’ll be hoping to avoid anything as severe this weekend, but against a Brumbies side looking to assert their dominance they look to be in for another long afternoon.
