Match prediction 38 of 48 of our Rugby World Cup 2023 betting series.

japan-vs-argentina-prediction

Sunday's Rugby World Cup fixtures start off with a potentially cracking match as Argentina meet Japan in Pool D for a spot in the Quarter-Finals. This match will kick off at the Stade de la Beaujoire at 12:00 GMT, so you can enjoy some extra sleep before you settle in for a day of quality rugby.

New Zealand's Ben O'Keeffe will be the man with the whistle for this match, while his assistants will be his compatriots, Paul Williams and James Doleman. The Television Match Official will be Brendan Pickerill, who is also from New Zealand.

These two teams have met a total of six times, and the Pumas lead the head-to-head with five wins to Japan's one. The last time that the Japanese won this fixture was 1998, and if they manage to get just their second win against the Argentinians, then they will book themselves a spot in the last eight. So, who will come out on top and join England in the Quarter-Finals? Well, read on and my views will be revealed.

💯 Japan v Argentina Betting Odds Rugby World Cup

Below are three tables that highlight odds from five quality bookmakers for three really popular rugby markets. Those who want to find out more about any of the betting sites mentioned in my prediction can do so by visiting our bookmaker reviews page.

🥇 Japan v Argentina Match Winner Odds

There have not been that many exciting group stage matches at this World Cup, but this one should be as there is so much on the line for both teams - the winner will keep their title aspirations alive, while the losing team will be left to ponder what could have been.

Argentina, as you can see from the table below, are the heavy favourites for this clash, but the Japanese have what it takes to upset the odds - they have a history of doing so, just ask South Africa.

➕ Japan v Argentina Handicap 3-Way Odds

If you do not want to make use of the match winner odds, then another popular betting option among Irish rugby bettors is the 3-way handicap betting market - with this market, you can give or retract theoretical points from a team before the start of the match in order to make the odds more to your liking.

Below I have given you the 3-way betting odds for this Japan vs Argentina match:

Team
betiton-logo
mr-mega-logo
william-hill-logo

spreadex-logo
Argentina (0-13)1.771.771.91--
Argentina (0-15)----1.95
Draw (0-13)17.1017.1017.00--
Draw (0-15)----23.00
Japan (0-13)1.941.941.91--
Japan (0-15)----1.91

🏮 Japan v Argentina Asian Handicap Odds

When you place a 3-way handicap, there is still the possibility of a theoretical draw, which could see you end up with a losing bet. There is a way to get rid of the draw possibility, and that is by making use of Asian handicap betting options - the additional 0.5 eliminates the tie.

Below are the Asian handicap betting options for Japan against Argentina:

Team
betiton-logo
mr-mega-logo
william-hill-logo
kwiff-logo
spreadex-logo
Japan (+13.5)1.851.85-1.80-
Japan (+14.5)-1.90
Argentina (-13.5)1.771.77-1.70-
Argentina (-14.5)----1.90

These odds are correct at the time of writing. For updated odds, please check out respective sites.

🔍 Japan v Argentina Winner Prediction

The last time that these two teams met was in 2016, and Argentina won the match by 34 points. The odds that the top bookmakers are offering would suggest that something similar might happen again, but I do not think that this will be the case. I feel that these are two nations that are evenly matched on the rugby field, and there will be plenty of nerves about, meaning that it could end up being a close and tense affair, with no player wanting to make a costly error that could see their side heading home.

I am never one to sit on the fence, so I am going to give you a predicted winner, and my winners for this match is Argentina. I feel like the fact that they play regularly in the Rugby Championship alongside South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand will mean that they can deal with the pressure a lot better than their Asian counterparts.

So, my prediction for this match is Argentina to win by no more than 10 points.

✔️ Japan v Argentina RWC Betting Tips

An online betting guide without any tips is quite pointless, so I am now going to give you some betting tips for this Japan v Argentina game. The first tip that I must give you though is to always make sure that you gamble responsibly and do not bet money that you cannot afford to potentially lose.

1️⃣ Match Winner: Argentina to Win

For me the odds for an Argentina win are too short and not worth bothering with - if I am being honest, I am surprised that they are this short. If you do want to make use of this market, then William Hill are offering odds of 1.18 for an Argentina win.

2️⃣ Handicap Winner: Japan to Win (+15)

As I said, I expect the Argentinians to win this match by around 10 points, so giving Japan a +15 handicap is a bet that appeals to me. To win such a wager, you would need Argentina to win the match by no more than 14 points - if they win by 15 points, the match will be considered a draw.

If you want to give the Japanese a -15-point handicap for this game, then Spreadex Sports are currently offering odds of 1.91.

3️⃣ Winning Margin

Do you want to try and predict the points range that the victorious team will win by? If yes, then the winning margin market is always worth having a gander at. Since I believe that Argentina will come out on top by 10 points, the odds of 6.00 for Argentina to win by 6-10 points is enticing to me.
