NRL Footy Tips Round 27

Broncos vs Storm

Thursday, August 31, 2023

7:50 PM @ Suncorp Stadium

Brisbane’s recent form is impressive, having secured victories in their last seven matches. This winning streak showcases their determination and prowess on the field. On the other hand, Melbourne Storm has a commendable record at Suncorp, covering the line in their last nine encounters against Brisbane.

However, history also shows that matches between these two teams at Suncorp Stadium tend to be high-scoring, with the total points exceeding 43.5 in their last seven face-offs. Taking all these factors into account, while Melbourne’s performance at Suncorp is noteworthy, Brisbane’s current momentum might just give them the edge.

Expect a close contest with Brisbane emerging victorious, with a predicted score of 24-20.

Betting Tip: Brisbane @1.52

Sea Eagles vs Wests Tigers

Friday, September 1, 2023

6:00 PM @ 4 Pines Park

The Wests Tigers have faced a challenging period, losing their last 11 matches when positioned as underdogs. This streak indicates a struggle in high-pressure situations. Conversely, Manly’s recent home games have been relatively low-scoring, with seven of their last eight matches not exceeding the total match points line of 47.5. This suggests a strong defensive strategy when playing on their home turf.

However, it’s worth noting that Manly has struggled to maintain consistency, often not covering the line in games following a victory, as seen in six of their last seven such matches. Given these insights, while the Wests Tigers face an uphill battle, Manly’s inconsistency post-win might narrow the margin.

Manly should clinch the win with a scoreline of around 22-14.

Betting Tip: Sea Eagles @1.28

Rabbitohs vs Roosters

Friday, September 1, 2023

8:00 PM @ Accor Stadium

The Roosters are on a winning streak, having won their last four matches. On the flip side, the Rabbitohs seem to be facing challenges, especially when playing at home. They’ve consistently failed to cover the line in their last seven home games, indicating potential vulnerabilities in their home-ground strategy.

Additionally, recent matches involving the Rabbitohs have been on the lower-scoring side, with the total points not surpassing 42.5 in their last four games. This could point to a strong defensive game plan or challenges in their offensive execution. Given these insights, the Roosters, with their current form, seem poised to edge out the Rabbitohs in this encounter.

A close game is expected with the Roosters potentially securing a win with a scoreline around 20-18.

Betting Tip: Roosters @1.98

Dolphins vs Warriors

Saturday, September 2, 2023

3:00 PM @ Suncorp Stadium

The Dolphins are currently navigating their little flippers through turbulent waters, having lost in their last six matches. On the scoring front, the Dolphins’ games have been relatively low-scoring, with seven of their last eight matches not exceeding a total of 48.5 points, suggesting either a defensive approach or challenges in breaking through opposition defences.

Conversely, the Warriors are showcasing commendable form, especially when playing away. They’ve managed to cover the line in six of their last seven away games, showing they do well when playing away. Furthermore, the Warriors have a knack for close finishes, having won their last five matches by a narrow margin of 1 to 12 points. This demonstrates their resilience and ability to handle pressure situations.

Taking all these factors into consideration, the Warriors, with their current form and away game prowess, seem well-positioned to clinch a victory. However, given their recent track record of close finishes, expect a relatively tight contest with the Warriors emerging triumphant with a scoreline around 22-14.

Betting Tip: Warriors @1.94

Panthers vs Cowboys

Saturday, September 2, 2023

5:30 PM @ BlueBet Stadium

Penrith’s form this year has been nothing short of impressive. adding to that is that they have won eight of their last nine matches, showcasing their dominance and consistency on the field. Furthermore, when playing at BlueBet Stadium following a loss, the Panthers have a history of bouncing back strongly, covering the line in their last seven such encounters. This resilience is a testament to their ability to regroup and refocus.

On to the scoring, matches between these two teams have historically been on the lower end, with six of their last seven clashes not surpassing the total match points line of 42.5. This could be indicative of both teams’ defensive strategies or the evenly matched nature of their contests.

Given Penrith’s formidable track record, especially at BlueBet Stadium, they will likely get another win.

The Panthers should edge out the Cowboys with a scoreline around 20-16.

Betting Tip: Panthers @1.55

Dragons vs Knights

Saturday, September 2, 2023

7:35 PM @ Netstrata Jubilee Stadium

Newcastle’s recent form is stellar, having secured wins each of their last eight games. Additionally, when it comes to covering the line, the Knights have proven their mettle, achieving this feat in seven of their last eight games. This indicates their capacity to perform beyond expectations.

The Dragons seem to be in a challenging phase. Despite their fighting spirit, they’ve faced narrow defeats in their last five matches, each by a margin of 1 to 12 points. They’ve struggled to get over the line in close encounters.

On the scoring front, night matches between these two teams tend to be on the lower-scoring side. The last five night clashes have not exceeded the total match points line of 46.5.

Given Newcastle’s current form, they appear set to continue their winning streak. However, considering the Dragons’ recent history of close finishes, expect a tight game.

The Knights should narrowly overcome the Dragons with a scoreline of around 22-18.

Betting Tip: Knights @2.15

Titans vs Bulldogs

Sunday, September 3, 2023

2:00 PM @ Cbus Super Stadium

The Gold Coast Titans seem to be grappling with a peculiar challenge: they’ve consistently lost their last six matches against teams that are on a losing streak. Additionally, the Titans have found themselves trailing at halftime in their last six games.

Conversely, the Bulldogs’ matches have been high-scoring. A staggering ten of their last eleven games have surpassed the total match points line of 50.5.

Furthermore, when these two teams clash at Cbus Super Stadium, the underdog often outperforms expectations, covering the line in their last five encounters.

While the Titans have home advantage, their recent form against teams on a losing streak and their first-half performances raise concerns. The Bulldogs, with their high-scoring games and the trend of underdogs performing well at Cbus Super Stadium, seem poised to give a tough fight.

This could be a close contest with the Bulldogs potentially edging out the Titans in a high-scoring game, with a scoreline around 28-26.

Betting Tip: Bulldogs @3.50

Sharks vs Raiders

Sunday, September 3, 2023

4:05 PM @ PointsBet Stadium

The Canberra Raiders have been a formidable opponent for the Sharks, having won each of their last nine games.

Furthermore, when these two teams lock horns, the underdog often surpasses expectations. An impressive 14 of their last 15 matches have seen the underdog cover the line.

On the scoring front, the Sharks’ recent matches have been on the lower-scoring side, with their last five games not exceeding the total match points line of 43.5.

Given these insights, while the Sharks will be eager to break Canberra’s winning streak against them, the Raiders’ recent dominance in this fixture cannot be overlooked. However, considering the trend of underdogs performing well in this matchup, a tight contest is anticipated.

The Raiders might continue their winning streak against the Sharks, but with a close scoreline of around 22-20.

Betting Tip: Raiders @2.95
