Italy are home to Georgia in this rugby union test match. The home side have won their two previous matches against their opponents and will look for a hat-trick of victories this Sunday. Read our match prediction below.
July saw the Italians get wins over Tonga and Japan, scoring a total of 78 points. Before those two victories though they had been beaten in Samoa after having a six-point lead at the break. Last week saw them suffer a heavy 50-18 home loss to Argentina with 33 points conceded in the second half.
They had a good Six Nations tournament this year with no defeats in their last three matches. A draw in France was followed by a home win over Scotland and then a win in Wales. That silenced the critics who had been questioning their place in the annual tournament.
There have even been calls for Georgia to replace them in the Six Nations. They won the European Championships in the summer, beating Portugal in the final. It's not gone too well since though with one win (over Japan by two points) in four games.
Losses have been incurred against Fiji, Australia and last week a New Zealand B side beat them in Georgia by 18 points. We tip Italy to win this match and overcome a -12.5 points handicap.

Our Italy vs Georgia Prediction
Italy had a poor result against Argentina last week and will look for a much better performance against Georgia on Sunday. They have had some good results this year, including two victories in the Six Nations and that's far more than anything achieved in recent tournaments.
Georgia again won the European Championships but continue to struggle against the top tier countries. That's been shown with some recent losses. Our Italy v Georgia prediction is Italy to win on a -12.5 points handicap.
