England are 3-1 with bookmaker Coral to win the 2023 Rugby World Cup and go one better than in 2019 when they lost to South Africa in the final.

That makes them the second favourites behind New Zealand who are 7-4.

South Africa and hosts France are both 5-1 to win the tournament. The draw for the pool stages were made today with England to face Argentina and Japan in Pool D.

"England fell just short in 2019 and with a favourable pool draw handed to them this morning, they will be aiming a tilt at the trophy again in 2023. We make them 3-1 shots to win the World Cup for the first time since 2003," said Coral's Harry Aitkenhead.

Australia (8-1), Ireland (12-1) and Wales (16-1) are the other sides near the forefront of the betting.

Scotland are 50-1 with Coral to win the tournament.

"Scotland face a tricky pool with Ireland to get past if they are to make it to the knockout stages and that means they are the outsiders as far as the home nations are concerned," added Aitkenhead.
