New Zealand vs France 3rd Test Predictions - France backed to get close against All Blacks
In the ongoing New Zealand vs France rugby series, New Zealand leads 2-0. They won the last game 43-17, improving significantly from their narrow 31-27 victory in the first test. With the series won, New Zealand is expected to rotate players, offering game time to fringe team members. France, having debuted several players on this tour, aims to end positively despite missing senior players. Coach Fabien Galthie made notable changes last week and might do likewise. A competitive final test awaits as France seeks a closer contest under their returning lineup.
- New Zealand leads France 2-0 in the series.
- Last game score: New Zealand 43, France 17.
- France aims for a stronger final game lineup.

New Zealand vs France Predictions
New Zealand were much better in the second Test but France also made 10 changes to their side. If the French revert back to the team that featured in the first test, I can see them getting within 20 points on Saturday.

Head to Head
New Zealand lead the current series 2-0 after winning 31-27 and 43-17.
New Zealand Form
Coming into the third Test of the series, New Zealand have already secured the series win. They will expect nothing less than a 3-0 victory though.
In the first game of the series, France pushed New Zealand all the way. The hosts eventually got over the line 31-27, but there was much criticism as a second-string French side almost pulled off an upset.
Last weekend, Scott Robertson’s charges were far more clinical as they matched the French energy throughout. Early points settled the All Blacks nerves and they went on to win 43-17.
New Zealand Team News
Robertson is expected to make a few changes to the side for this weekend’s encounter. With the series won, he will be looking to give some fringe players a run.
France Form
France will not be disheartened with their tour so far despite losing both games. They will want to end the tour on a positive note though, and this is their final opportunity to do so.
The French were never expected to challenge for the series given how many of their top players stayed at home. They have given many debuts on this tour and will continue to do so.
Fabien Galthie would have been pleased with the performance in the 31-27 first test loss but last week, after making many changes, they couldn’t quite match the same quality as the week before.
France Team News
Galthie made 10 changes last weekend and it would be safe to assume a similar number this weekend.
Verdict
France are backed to get within 20.5 points of the All Blacks on Saturday.
