Six Nations 2026 Tournament Winner Odds

France, the 2025 holders, are fancied to emerge from World Cup disappointment as minor odds-against favourites for the 2026 Six Nations. 

If there is to be a surprise in store, England are likeliest to deliver it say the bookmakers, who go a best price of 6/1 for the Red Rose to earn a first Guinness Men's Six Nations title since 2020. At almost double the odds sit Scotland (11/1), who hold a Calcutta Cup win over England in each of the last three tournaments.

Behind them are Wales at 33/1 whose inconsistency has seen two recent titles punctuated by three fifth-place finishes. Finally, bottom of the pile stand Italy - a whopping 300/1 proposition for daydreaming punters - serving as Wooden Spoon recipients on 18 occasions since joining the competition in 2000. Their Rugby World Cup performance did inspire some belief of improvement moving forwards, however, they aren't anticipated to cause much of a stir, if any, here.
