Sydney Roosters vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview

As the NRL’s oldest rivalry reignites at Allianz Stadium this week, anticipation runs high as the Roosters clash with the Rabbitohs. While the Roosters emerge as rightful favorites, the most prudent wager lies in betting on the under.

Recent trends favor this prediction, with the under hitting in four consecutive matchups. Both teams grapple with the loss of a key half, with Luke Keary sidelined under HIA protocols and Lachlan Ilias omitted from the Rabbitohs lineup.

Moreover, the Roosters boast a strong under record at Allianz Stadium, standing at 8-2. Early season dynamics also suggest a low-scoring affair, with teams typically struggling to breach the 18-plus point threshold in the opening four rounds, resulting in an under trend of 75.5%.

Considering these factors, scoring opportunities may be limited. However, individual performances could still shine through. Dominic Young’s impressive try-scoring record since joining the NRL adds intrigue, particularly given his past success against South Sydney. On the opposing side, Jack Wighton’s historical prowess against the Roosters positions him as a player to watch, especially as he debuts for the Rabbitohs.
