The Chiefs are favored to secure a victory as they face the Force, whom they have defeated in their last five encounters. Despite the Chiefs' mixed form of late, winning three out of the last five away matches, their record suggests they'll overcome the Force, who have struggled with four losses and one draw in recent home games. The recommendation is for the Chiefs to cover the -14.5 handicap, capitalizing on their superior recent performances.

Force vs Chiefs Predictions 


The Chiefs are favourites to win at the Force with an impeccable head-to-head win record. My best bet is the Chiefs to cover the -14.5 handicap.

  • Force have lost 4 and drawn 1 of their last 5 home matches.
  • Force have lost their last 5 meetings against the Chiefs.
  • Force come into this match off the back of a 42-32 loss at home to the Blues.
  • Chiefs have won 3 of their last 5 away matches.

Head to Head


The Force have lost their last five meetings against the Chiefs.

Force Form


The Force have experienced a poor run of form at home, having lost four and drawn one of their last five home matches in all competitions. They come into this match on the back of a 42-32 loss at home to the Blues.

Their previous home results include a draw against the Hurricanes (17-17), followed by losses against the Brumbies (33-14), the Waratahs (22-17), and the Brumbies (56-24). 

The Force are currently 10th in Super Rugby with four points after five matches.
