New Zealand can grab consolation win in final Test

Third Test
BBC1, 2.30pm Sunday

England's rugby union team were agonizingly pipped by New Zealand at Twickenham on Saturday and a similar fate could befall their rugby league outfit at Elland Road.

The hosts will be celebrating regardless of the result in Leeds, having already taken a unassailable 2-0 lead heading into the final clash of what has been a pulsating three-match series, but the Kiwis could hit back in Leeds.

There hasn't been much between the teams over the course of the series but the loss of injured home half-back Sam Tomkins and suspended prop George Burgess could tip the balance in the Kiwis' favour.

Take the tourists to notch a consolation win by one to 12 points.

Recommendation
New Zealand to win by one to 12 points
2pts 21-10 Hills
