England a good bet to win the RBS 6 Nations opening match

The much hyped RBS 6 Nations tournament begins on the 4th February with the first match being Wales taking on England at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. England are the favourites to win this fixture but they have not won at the in the Six Nations since 2004.

Both sides have had an onset of injury worries with England being without regular team captain Lewis Moody who is likely to be replaced by centre Mike Tindall. Moody is expected to miss out on the first three games of England’s campaign after the injury he sustained during baths win over Aironi in the Heineken Cup. Wales will be without Leigh Halfpenny after the player sustained an ankle injury during training which will be sure to be a big blow to Wales he is also expected to be out for the clash against Scotland. They are also without George North and Gethin Jenkins.

The full squads for both sides will be announced later today.
