World Cup Rugby 2019 currently taking place in Japan.
The Japanese national team has entered the first final tournament in history and is showing excitement nationwide.
The appearance of a small player tackling a large player, the sport of a gentleman, and embracing each other at the end of the game, and bowing to the fans of enemy countries were very impressive. It is a scene that is not often seen in soccer.
There may have been a lot of rugby fans or people who are interested in rugby in this World Cup.
Rugby is very popular in Europe and is very popular as a national sport. The World Cup Rugby 2019 will be finalized on November 2 and will end the tournament, but Six Nations 2020 will be held in Europe next year.
What is Rugby Six Nations?
Rugby Six Nations is a league game of representatives who compete for victory in six European countries (England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Italy, France). The first tournament was held in 1882 and has a very old history.
The tournament takes place from February to March, and it is exciting every year in Europe.

Over the past decade, England, Wales and Ireland have won three times each.
It ’s only the strongest powers that remained in the top 8 in this World Cup Rugby 2019.
Although it is still a rumor, it seems that it is proposed to convene a representative of Japan and hold a tournament in “7 countries” against the consideration of this World Cup. The possibility may be low, but I'm looking forward to seeing another hot battle if Japan is convened.
Now, Rugby Six Nations will be held from February, but bookmaker William Hill has announced the odds of winning countries.
Let's check which country is most likely to win.
What are the odds of winning Rugby Six Nations?
- England: 2.37
- Ireland: 3.50
- Wales: 3.50
- Scotland: 17.00
- France: 17.00
- Italy: 501.00
The best remaining England at World Cup Rugby 2019 is the top with 2.37 times.
This is followed by Ireland and Wales at 3.50.
Italy that has not won yet has 501 times higher odds.
By the way, my prediction is that England will win as far as the World Cup is concerned.
The first day of the tournament was Japan time, February 1, 2020 (Saturday) match against Wales vs Italy.
