Resolves YES if Fiji defeat Portgual by a larger margin than Australia at Rugby World Cup 2023.

Otherwise resolves NO

Note: in the less likely scenario where both teams lose to Portugal, this question would resolve to whoever lost by the lowest margin. If the margin is equal, this question would resolve NO

The fortunes of Fiji and Australia have been starkly contrasting at Rugby World Cup 2023. They both lost to Wales but that's about where the similarities end.

The last showdown for each is against Portugal. Portugal has provided some great entertainment so far and put up strong showing against Wales and Georgia.

Wow what a morning, Portgual defeat Fiji.

But the flying Fijians qualify.

What a great outcome for both 👍

predicted NO

Halftime and it's 3-3. Australian margin looking impressive now but you can't forget the rate at which Fiji can score points.

predicted YES

In a remarkable turn of events at the 2023 Rugby World Cup, Fiji achieved a historic victory over Australia with a scoreline of 22-15, marking their first win against Australia in 69 years. This victory underscored Fiji's transformation, characterized by a fusion of their trademark style, improved game management, and enhanced set-piece execution, solidifying their status as a well-rounded and formidable team. Drawing insights from the statistics provided by Rugby Kick Off, it's worth noting that Fiji's recent triumph over Australia comes on the heels of their strong track record in previous matches. In 2013, Fiji secured a convincing victory against Portugal with a commanding score of 36-13. Additionally, in 2005, Fiji emerged victorious with a scoreline of 26, further highlighting their consistent and impressive performance on the international stage. Given Fiji's historic win against Australia after a 69-year gap, there is a compelling argument to suggest that Fiji may carry this momentum into their match against Portugal at the Rugby World Cup 2023, potentially resulting in a larger margin of victory in favor of Fiji. This recent achievement signals Fiji's readiness to compete at a high level in the tournament.

@JasmeetKaur great summary, I hope Fiji can use this game to build some momentum for the quarterfinal. Their destiny is in their hands and they've earned that position with a compelling tournament so far.

I'm hoping they continue to perform well and exceed the already revised expectations

predicted NO

Australia beat Portugal 34-14

This means a 21 point winning margin for Fiji is required for this to resolve YES
