France to cruise to victory against Italy in Rome

Italy and France will get their respective Six Nations campaigns underway in what should be an entertaining encounter between two sides at opposite ends of the scale in terms of their development in the international arena.
The Azzurri start the Six Nations in a desperate mood as they are currently on a 27-match losing run in the competition – the worst streak in the tournament’s history – which stretches back to a Round Three encounter against Scotland in 2015 when Italy claimed a narrow 22-19 triumph at Murrayfield.
Adding insult to injury for head coach Franco Smith and his troops is the fact that they have also lost their last 10 Tests against France, with their most recent triumph against Les Bleus registered in 2013 (23-18) at the same venue in Rome.
