Italy are also 10/11 to benefit from a ten point start on the handicap. The next game of the afternoon, billed by many as the Championship decider sees England (8/11 for the 6 nations) take on France (6/5). It's 4/9 that the English win at Twickenham with France 7/4 chances and the draw can be backed at 18/1. England have to cover five points on the handicap at the usual price of 10/11.Ireland travel to face Scotland on Sunday and it's 2/5 they prevail with the Scots priced at 15/8. Scotland have a mathematical chance of winning the championship this year but must overcome odds of 500/1 to do so with a bottom placed finish more likely at 3/1.Both Brian O'Driscoll and Shane Williams could break the tournament all time try scoring record (24) this weekend and they can be backed at 33/1 each to do so. Chris Ashton is also 2/1 to score at any time against France and celebrate with his trademark 'swallow-dive'.Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes told Bettingpro: "All eyes will be on Twickenham this Saturday and we expect the winner of this game to kick on and secure the Championship. The odds indicate the wooden spoon is heading to Italy again but a decent performance against Wales could avert that with Scotland also in danger should they lose against Ireland."Ladbrokes latest bettingMatch oddsItaly - 7/2Draw - 22/1Wales - 1/5England - 4/9Draw - 18/1France - 7/4Scotland - 15/8Draw - 18/1Ireland - 2/5HandicapItaly (+10) - 10/11Draw - 16/1Wales - 10/11England (-5) - 10/11Draw - 16/1France - 10/11Scotland (+6) - 10/11Draw - 16/1Ireland - 10/116 Nations WinnerEngland - 8/11France - 6/5Ireland - 22/1Wales - 28/1Scotland - 500/1Grand SlamEngland - 15/8France - 2/1No winner - 11/8Triple CrownEngland - 8/11Ireland - 9/2No winner - 15/8Wooden spoonItaly - 1/4Scotland - 3/1Wales - 33/1Ireland - 40/1SpecialsChris Ashton to score at any time and celebrate with a 'swallow dive' - 2/1Brian O'Driscoll to break the Six Nations tryscoring record of 24 this weekend - 33/1Shane Williams to break the Six Nations tryscoring record of 24 this weekend - 33/1 Read our Ladbrokes review Use code MAXIMUMBONUS to get £50 free at Ladbrokes Like Like Post to wall 192 Reads All Rugby League News Recent Rugby League Articles Chiefs v Waratahs Live Streaming - Super Rugby30 Mar 2012The Chiefs and Waratahs lock horns on Saturday in the Super Rugby with the hosts suitably refreshed Canberra Raiders NRL season betting preview08 Mar 2011The Raiders are capable of a top four finish during 2011 Penrith Panthers NRL season betting preview08 Mar 2011Panthers will be hoping for an improved showing if they reach the play-offs in 2011 Melbourne Storm NRL season betting preview08 Mar 2011The Storm hoping for a fresh start and they have a squad capable of challenging for top honours Wests Tigers season betting preview07 Mar 2011The Tigers came very close to reaching the Grand Final last season and are the Bettingpro tip to be Gold Coast Titans season betting preview07 Mar 2011Scott Prince, Greg Bird, Luke Bailey, Clinton Toopi and Preston Campbell should help the Titans mak More Stories Recent Articles Venus Williams v Paula Ormaechea - French Open live stream26 May 2012Venus Williams will make a start to her French Open campaign with a match against Paula Ormaechea o Norway v England Result – Young gives Hodgson debut win26 May 2012Ashley Young netted the only goal of the game as England gave new boss Roy Hodgson a winning start Russian Grannies proving popular on Eurovision26 May 2012The Eurovision Song Contest final begins shortly in Baku with StanJames.com reporting money for the League One Play-off Final Result – Huddersfield promoted after penalty shootout26 May 2012Huddersfield Town earned promotion to the Championship after beating Sheffield United, 8-7 on penal No Deposit Required Free Bets26 May 2012Is there such a thing as a free bet?
