NRL Footy Tips Round 23

Roosters vs Sea Eagles

Thursday, August 3, 2023

7:50 PM @ SCG

The Manly Sea Eagles seem to have the upper hand based on recent performance trends. Sydney’s night-match track record has been less than stellar, with eight consecutive losses. Furthermore, Sydney has struggled to cover the line in their last six home matches, indicating a potential weakness in their defensive strategy.

On the other hand, the Manly Sea Eagles have been given a favourable line of +3.5, suggesting that bookmakers believe they have a strong chance of winning. Additionally, Sydney’s last six matches at the SCG have seen high scoring games, with total match points going over the line. This could play into the hands of the Sea Eagles, who have a potent attacking line-up.

In light of these factors, predicting a win for the Manly Sea Eagles is reasonable. A realistic final score could be around 28-20 in favour of the Sea Eagles.

Betting Tip: Manly Sea Eagles @2.25

Suggested Bet: Sea Eagles WINNING MARGIN 1-12 @3.30

Titans vs Warriors

Friday, August 4, 2023

6:00 PM @ Cbus Super Stadium

The Warriors have been in formidable form, winning their last four away matches. This winning streak and their impressive record of covering the line in eight of their previous ten night matches against the Gold Coast suggests they have the upper hand.

The Titans, however, should not be underestimated. They have shown resilience in their games, and while they may be the underdogs, they have the potential to surprise.

Nevertheless, the Warriors’ recent performance and historical dominance over the Titans make them the favourites. A realistic final score could be in the region of 26-16 in favour of the New Zealand Warriors. This game is set to be a fascinating display of rugby, with both teams eager to secure victory.

Betting Tip: New Zealand Warriors @1.35

Suggested Bet: Warriors WINNING MARGIN 1-12 @2.95

Panthers vs Storm

Friday, August 4, 2023

8:00 PM @ BlueBet Stadium

The Penrith Panthers are set to continue their winning streak at BlueBet Stadium, with a strong record of 34 victories in their last 37 matches. Their performance against top-four ranked opponents is impressive, covering the line in their last six encounters. The Panthers’ recent form suggests they’ll dominate both halves, as they’ve done in their last four matches.

The Melbourne Storm, while a formidable opponent, will find it challenging to break Penrith’s momentum. Considering the recent history of low-scoring games between these two at BlueBet Stadium.

A final score of 30-16 in favour of the Panthers seems plausible.

Betting Tip: Penrith Panthers @1.32

Suggested Bet: Panthers WINNING MARGIN 14+ @2.30

Cowboys vs Broncos

Saturday, August 5, 2023

3:00 PM @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium

The Cowboys have been on a winning streak at home, with six consecutive victories under their belt. This impressive record, coupled with their consistent performance against higher-ranked teams, makes them a formidable opponent.

Moreover, the Cowboys have consistently covered the line in their last six matches against teams ranked higher, further demonstrating their resilience and tenacity. The past four games between the Cowboys and the Broncos have seen the total match points go over the line, indicating a high-scoring game is on the cards.

Given these factors, it’s reasonable to predict that the North Queensland Cowboys will emerge victorious in this encounter. A final score of 28-20 in favour of the Cowboys seems plausible, considering their recent form and the high-scoring nature of their previous matches.

Betting Tip: North Queensland Cowboys @2.20

Suggested Bet: Cowboys WINNING MARGIN 1-12 @3.30

Dolphins vs Knights

Saturday, August 5, 2023

5:30 PM @ Optus Stadium

The Knights have been on a winning streak, securing seven out of their last eight matches when they’ve had a rest advantage. This rest advantage has proven to be a significant factor in their recent success.
Moreover, the Knights have consistently covered the line in their last four matches, demonstrating their ability to win and exceed expectations. Their performance has been so strong that they’ve won both halves in each of their last four matches, a testament to their stamina and strategic play.

On the other hand, the Dolphins have been struggling, especially in the first half of their games. They’ve lost the first half in each of their last seven matches, which puts them at a disadvantage right from the start. Additionally, each of the Dolphins’ last four matches have gone UNDER the total match points line, indicating a lack of scoring power.

Given these factors, it’s clear that the Knights have the upper hand in this match-up. The final score should reflect the Knights’ dominance and the Dolphins’ struggles, with a likely result being Knights 28, Dolphins 16. This prediction aligns with the current betting line of Knights (-9.5) and total points under 49.5.

Betting Tip: Knights @1.36

Suggested Bet: Knights HEAD-to-HEAD @1.36

Rabbitohs vs Sharks

Saturday, August 5, 2023

7:35 PM @ Optus Stadium

Based on the recent performance and statistics, it seems the Cronulla Sharks are poised to take the victory in the upcoming match against the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

The Sharks have shown consistent strength, covering the line in 13 of their last 16 matches against higher-ranked teams. This resilience and South Sydney’s recent struggles as a home favourite paint a clear picture.

Moreover, the trend of high-scoring games between these two teams suggests we’re in for a match with plenty of points on the board.

Given these factors, it’s reasonable to predict a final score in the vicinity of Cronulla Sharks 30, South Sydney Rabbitohs 18.

Betting Tip: Cronulla Sharks @3.90

Suggested Bet: Sharks WINNING MARGIN 1-12 @4.60

Eels vs Dragons

Sunday, August 6, 2023

2:00 PM @ CommBank Stadium

Looking at recent performance, the Eels have a clear advantage. They’ve managed to cover the line in 11 of their last 13 matches against the Dragons. This, coupled with the fact that St. George Illawarra has lost each of its last 18 matches as an away underdog, makes the Eels the favourites.

Moreover, St. George Illawarra’s last seven matches in Sydney have exceeded the total match points line. With their strong performance record, this suggests that the Eels could potentially secure a high-scoring victory.

In conclusion, the Parramatta Eels are likely to emerge victorious in this encounter. Considering the trends, a realistic final score prediction could be Parramatta Eels 26, St. George Illawarra Dragons 16.

Betting Tip: Parramatta Eels @1.22

Suggested Bet: Eels WINNING MARGIN 1-12 @3.15

Raiders vs Wests Tigers

Sunday, July 30, 2023

4:05 PM @ GIO Stadium

The Tigers’ recent form is concerning, with eight consecutive losses under their belt. On the other hand, the Raiders have consistently outperformed the Tigers, covering the line in 10 of their last 15 encounters.

Moreover, the Tigers tend to lose by a significant margin, with six of their last seven matches ending in a 13+ point deficit. This pattern and the Raiders’ strong performance suggest a clear advantage for Canberra.

In terms of scoring, the trend indicates a total of fewer than 46.5 points. Given the Raiders’ dominance and the Tigers’ struggles, a realistic final score could be Raiders 28, Tigers 10. This prediction aligns with the recent history of matches between these two teams, which typically have lower total points.
The Canberra Raiders are well-positioned to triumph over the Wests Tigers, with a predicted scoreline of 28-10. This match offers a chance for the Raiders to further their winning streak, while the Tigers will need to significantly up their game to break their losing run.

Betting Tip: Canberra Raiders @1.24

Suggested Bet: Raiders WINNING MARGIN 13+ @1.90
