With just one round of fixtures remaining, Ireland are now marginal favourites at 5/6 with Ladbrokes to win the Six Nations.
England are a slightly heftier 10/11 according to Ladbrokes, despite their impressive triumph over Wales at Twickenham, the Greens getting the nod because their fate remains in their own hands.
France can also come out on top but their now 28/1 outsiders ahead of their decisive clash with the Irish in Paris at the weekend.
Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes told Betrescue: “Ireland’s destiny is in their own hands and we think the points difference is too much for England to overturn against Italy. This is the worst French team we’ve seen for a while, and right now we cannot see them stopping Ireland in their tracks.”
