Canberra Raiders vs Cronulla Sharks Preview
Saturday afternoons game between the Canberra Raiders and Cronulla Sharks is shaping up to be a cracker.
The Sharks have opened as favourites for this game but there’s not a lot splitting the two sides.
The Sharks have been in good form, winning 5 of their last 6 games. They did lose to the Broncos though so it’s hard to get too confident.
I like the Raiders here, they’ve been disappointing of late but this is a very winnable game.
Market Update: As we said in the preview, the Raiders seemed like good value and punters agree. They’ve been well backed this week. The Raiders opened at $2.35 and were quickly backed into $2.05.
The Sharks have drifted out to $1.77 after opening at $1.60 with online bookmaker Sportsbet.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Canberra Raiders to win at $2.05 odds.
