Georgia vs USA prediction
This is Georgia’s first end-of-year international, with the tier two nation last in action against world champions South Africa in July, where they were on the end of a 55-10 defeat.
USA, meanwhile, suffered a bruising 85-0 defeat to Scotland at Murrayfield last weekend, conceding 13 tries in a match where they were heavily outclassed.
These two sides have met on three previous occasions, with Georgia winning all three by small margins, but they are the clear favourites here against a side who will be lacking in confidence after such a recent mauling.
Expect the hosts to dominate in the scrums and overpower the visitors, who are likely to have no answer to Georgia’s superiority.
Georgia vs USA tip: Georgia to win with -28.5 handicap
