Canberra Raiders vs Newcastle Knights Preview
Canberra are chasing a rare nine-game winning streak and boast one of the league’s hottest attacks. The Knights have shown fight but continue to fall agonisingly short, including a buzzer-beater loss to the Warriors. Without Kalyn Ponga and other key men, Newcastle will struggle to go with the Green Machine in Canberra.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Canberra Raiders to win at $1.20 odds.
