CANADA FORM: STEEP LEARNING CONTINUES FOR CANADIANS

Canada were handily beaten by Scotland last week so they will be hoping to be much more competitive here against the Romanians. How useful that 73-12 defeat against the Scottish was will remain to be seen but Canada can expect this to be a much closer affair and their defence will be under nowhere near as much pressure as it was last week as they seek to snap this long losing streak.

LAST FIVE: LLLLL

ROMANIA FORM: VISITORS COME INTO THIS AFTER SUPERB USA WIN

Romania will come into this match full of confidence after they picked up an excellent win over USA in Chicago last weekend. Their physicality was key in that victory and they will be confidence of picking up back-to-back wins against fellow North American rivals as they meet in Ottawa.

LAST FIVE: WLLLW

CANADA VS ROMANIA PREDICTION

It is hard to make a case for Canada after their mauling at the hands of Scotland last weekend. They will be much more competitive against Romania but they will still find it incredibly tough even against a second tier European team. The visitors have much more experience and cohesion and that along with their physicality, should see them ease to victory by double digits.

CANADA VS ROMANIA TIP: ROMANIA TO WIN BY 10+ POINTS
