Australia vs Georgia Head-to-Head

These two sides have met once in the past 8 years, with the Wallabies beating Georgia 27-8 during the 2019 World Cup. Based on that recent head-to-head, Australia has the edge over the Lelos. However, Georgia's forward pack always poses a threat and they will be eager to snatch their first ever win against the Wallabies. While Australia should have too much firepower, this shapes as an intriguing battle between contrasting styles.

Australia Performance

🟥🟥🟥🟥🟥 The Wallabies come into this match on a concerning run of five straight losses. Their last five matches against quality opposition like Ireland, England and New Zealand have all ended in defeat. The losses have often been heavy, suggesting Australia have struggled on both attack and defense lately. They have lacked consistency in selection and seem to be lacking cohesion in their play. Heading towards the World Cup, the Wallabies' confidence looks to be fragile. They will be desperate to turn their poor form around against Georgia.

Georgia Performance

🟥🟩🟩🟩🟩 Georgia has found good form leading into the World Cup with four wins from their last five games. The Lelos have notched wins over rivals like Romania and Portugal in the Rugby Europe Championship, with their lone loss coming against Spain. The Georgians have shown their trademark forward power and set piece strength recently to overpower opponents. Their only defeat came by a tight five-point margin, highlighting how competitive they've been. If they can disrupt Australia's rhythm, Georgia will fancy causing an upset.

⚡ Match Facts:

• Australia won the only previous meeting between these teams 27-8 during the 2019 World Cup. They have a psychological edge.
• However, Australia are in very poor form, losing their last 5 matches heavily. Their confidence looks low.
• Georgia are in good form with 4 wins from 5. Their pack is always strong.
• The odds favor Australia at 1.01 but their recent performances don't justify odds that short.

💡 Match Prediction:

• Georgia to cause an upset win over Australia
• Georgia's forwards to overpower a struggling Wallabies pack
• Low scoring match - Take under 42.5 total points
• Recommended bet - Georgia +12.5 handicap at 2.1

While Australia have better historical pedigree, their current form is a major concern. Georgia's confidence and physicality can trouble Australia, especially up front. The Lelos will be targeting a historic first win over the Wallabies.
