Crusaders vs Chiefs
The Crusaders have had an excellent season and currently sit second on the table after 10 matches, with 8 wins and 2 losses. They are level on log points with the Chiefs, with only points difference separating the two sides. The Crusaders were on a bye in Round 12, but before that they dominated the Highlanders with a 43–10 away win.
The Chiefs have also had a strong campaign, winning 8 of their 11 matches, giving them a points difference of +120, the best in the competition. However, they suffered a setback in Round 12, going down 35–17 to the Hurricanes in Wellington, in a match where they struggled to get into the contest.
Head-to-Head
The Chiefs hold a slight edge in recent meetings, winning 3 of the last 5 encounters against the Crusaders. The most recent clash was in February, where the Chiefs won convincingly 49–24 at home.

Western Force vs Brumbies
The Western Force have struggled to find consistency in 2025, currently sitting 8th on the table. After 11 matches, they’ve recorded 4 wins, 6 losses, and 1 draw. In Round 12, they were outplayed by a clinical Blues outfit, falling 40–19 in Auckland. Creativity and defensive cohesion remain key concerns for the Perth-based side.
The Brumbies, by contrast, have been relatively consistent throughout the season. With 7 wins from 11 matches, they sit 3rd on the log, six points clear of the 4th-placed Reds. In their last outing, the Brumbies delivered a commanding performance at home, defeating the Waratahs 40–17 in a match they controlled from start to finish.
Head-to-Head
Recent clashes between these two sides have been competitive. In their last 5 meetings, the Brumbies have won 3, while the Force have taken 2. Their most recent matchup was in February, where the Force pulled off a thrilling 45–42 away victory.
Betting & Verdict
-
Match Odds:
-
Brumbies: 1.60
-
Western Force: 2.70
-
Draw: 26.00
-
-
Handicap: Western Force [+4.5]
Suggested Bet:
The Brumbies are the more consistent side and have momentum on their side. Brumbies to win at 1.60 is a solid option, while those seeking more value could consider the Brumbies -4.5 on the handicap.
My bet though is on over 57.5 points at 1.90. There were 87 points when these sides met in Canberra in February and in perfect conditions I am expecting tries to flow.
