Quick Insight
At the time of writing bet365 had the head to head for Brisbane Broncos is set at $1.14, and $5.50 for the Wests Tigers, This sets the bookmakers implied probability for both teams as follows:
Broncos
82.83%
Tigers
17.17%
Opportunity Bet
This is where things get interesting, the bookies are treating the Broncos like near-certainties, with an implied probability of 82.83%. But our model sees this as a much closer contest, giving Brisbane just a 56% chance of winning.
That means the Wests Tigers, despite being way out at $5.50, are actually showing strong value here. According to our analysis, their true odds should be closer to $2.27, making the current price a massive overs.
In summary: The market’s heavily overrating the Broncos here. If our numbers hold up, the Tigers are offering serious value at $5.50. It’s a classic high-risk, high-reward play, but there’s a clear edge in backing the underdog this time.
What to do?
With such an odd and unexpected start to the year for the Wests Tigers, we can’t guarantee a win or loss in either teams direction this week, however, the margins between these two teams so far indicate this will be a closer than anticipated game by the bookies, with a line of 17.5 the best bet this week is the Wests Tigers +17.5, and though it might not be the biggest value bet it is by far the smartest and safest way to go.
