The Brumbies play host the Rebels at the GIO Stadium in Canberra on Saturday 4 July. The Super Rugby AU tournament gets underway and I'm tipping the Brumbies to get off to a good start. The odds have not been made available as yet, but a 10 point handicap looks likely.

Brumbies Form & News


The Brumbies were excellent in the now-voided 2020 Super Rugby season.

The Canberra-based team claimed five wins in their six fixtures, with their last match before the lockdown break ending in a brilliant 47-14 win over Australian rivals the Waratahs at GIO Stadium on 15 March.

The Brumbies' last five fixtures have seen them beat the -10 handicap. They also managed that against the Rebels earlier in 2020.

Lock Cadeyrn Neville is injured and will likely miss the clash, while lock Blake Enever has left the Brumbies for the Reds.

Rebels Form & News


The Rebels have experienced an inconsistent 2020. With three wins from six Super Rugby fixtures, the Rebels will feel aggrieved they did not put up more of a fight in their defeats.

Their last clash was on 7 March 2020 against the Lions at AAMI Park in Melbourne. The Rebels produced a solid performance as they ran out 37-17 victors, but it was over a Lions side with a number of issues.

In the match before the Lions win, the Rebels hopped over to New Zealand where they downed the Highlanders 28-22 at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin.

The Rebels will set up camp in Canberra two weeks ahead of the clash, as a spike in coronavirus cases in Victoria is a worry.

Brumbies vs Rebels Head to Head


The Brumbies have a 13-7 advantage over the Rebels in their last 20 Super Rugby meetings.

The previous clash between the sides was on 7 February 2020 in Super Rugby. The Brumbies won 39-26 at the GIO Stadium in Canberra.

Brumbies vs Rebels Match Up


The Brumbies and the Rebels know how to attack, but it is the Brumbies' pack which truly shines. The home side should dominate set pieces, which will free up their backs to do the business.
