Biarritz v Munster Heineken Cup Semi Final Betting

Dual Heineken Cup winners, Munster travel to San Sebastian this weekend for their Heineken Cup Semi-Final against Biarritz, which is a repeat of the 2006 Final at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium, which the Munster boys won by 23-19 in an epic encounter. Munster in fact has been made favourites in the betting to win this match with odds of 8/11 offered by Bet365, while the same Bookmaker rate the home side not too far behind and have given them odds of 11/10.

Munstter will have been pleased to hear the news that top Biarritz centre, Damien Traille, will miss the match due to injury, but at the same time they will know that they will have to be on their guard against the pace of Takudzwa Ngwenya and Iain Balshaw, who are both capable of scoring tries from anywhere - particularly on the counter-attack.

A further area of concern for Munster is the likely absence of skipper Paul O’Connell, who is still out with a groin injury. O’Connell has been missed by the team, but at least they know that they can ‘up’ their game for the Heineken Cup and with Ronan O’Gara at number 10, they have a match winner, who can surely take advantage of any penalties conceded by the French side in their own half of the field.

We think similarly to that of the Bookmakers, that Munster will have enough power to win this game, but only if they can negate the counter attacking threat, keep their discipline and keep the inspirational Biarritz skipper, Imanol Harinorduquy quiet. Its a ‘tall order’, but Munster have the team to prevail and we see them winning by a margin of somewhere between 1-5 points, which can be backed at 4/1 with BET365.
