At the time of writing bet365 had the head to head for Gold Coast Titans is set at $1.56, and $2.45 for the Dolphins, This sets the bookmakers implied probability for both teams as follows:
Titans
61.08%
Dolphins
38.92%
Opportunity Bet
The bookies are favouring the Titans with a 61.08% chance, but we’ve got them rated even stronger at 66%. That means there’s a little bit of extra value in their current price of $1.56, our numbers suggest their true odds should be closer to $1.52.
On the flip side, the Dolphins are priced at $2.45, but we’ve only got them at a 34% chance, which puts their true odds more around $2.94, so not much value in backing them here.
In summary: The Titans are not just favourites, they might actually be a touch undervalued by the market. At $1.56, there’s a slight edge worth considering if you’re keen to back the Gold Coast boys to get the win.
What to do?
While it is still early days in the season we can pretty much write off the Dolphins chances of making it to the finals, and while the Dolphins have a few good names coming back into the fray this week, the Titans also have some big ones returning to the field. With Verrills out for the Titans, and Gilbert out for the Dolphins this is going to be an interesting match. The Dolphins are still hungry for their first win and the Dolphins played a good game last week against the Broncos, and will stop at nothing this week to try claim a victory.
Overall the Titans are the stronger pick, though the Dolphins have interestingly won their past two games against the Titans at Cbus which could lead to an upset this week.
The Head to Head on the Titans isn’t enough to lick your lips about at 1.48 so best bet is to snag the Titans winning margin of 1-12 as the games between these two teams is typically tight.
