The British Lions v South Africa First Test odds has the South Africans as clear cut 2/5 odds on favourites, while Lions fans and rugby backers will be keen to take the 9/4 on offer from Paddy Power about them scoring a shock win.
The Lions are unbeaten so far on tour, winning six from six and whilst they have not looked totally convincing at all times they have shown enough ability and desire to give a good account of themselves in this match.
Bookmakers appear to have little confidence in a Lions victory either in this test or the three match series and quote the hosts at around 6/4 to win this first test by 13 or more points. For Lions fans a victory for them however, by a margin of between 1-5 points, looks a much more sensible bet and can be backed with Ladbrokes at 6/1.

It is true that the South Africans are the current world champions but the Lions boast World class players in every position. They have an outstanding scrummaging pack and a three quarter line up that looks full of tries. We think therefore that this match will be a lot tighter than previously imagined and take the Lions to win by a very narrow margin.
2/5 South Africa, 9/4 Lions
