Parramatta Eels vs Canterbury Bulldogs Preview
Parramatta is struggling under Jason Ryles, with back-to-back losses to Melbourne and Wests Tigers leaving them in need of a turnaround. Canterbury has started well with two wins but will miss key players like Matt Burton and Viliame Kikau. Despite the Bulldogs’ injuries, their solid start and impressive forward pack should be enough to overcome the Eels, who have been woeful in defense. The Bulldogs have the edge in attack and should win, with a total points over 46.5 looking like a strong option.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Canterbury Bulldogs to win at $1.38 odds.
