Preview:
The Tigers hold home-field advantage for the third game in a row, but you can expect a big turnout from Eels fans at Bankwest Stadium on Sunday.
Wests were a little hard done by last week against the Roosters, as a slow start cost the Tigers in the end. Michael Maguire will be hoping for a much-improved performance from his side this week, especially following their blowout 51-6 loss to the Eels back in Round 6.
The market suggests Parramatta will be tough to beat, but the trouble is, the Eels are easily one of the most inconsistent sides in the competition.
Parramatta has won four of its last five games over the Tigers dating back to 2017, but even with a near perfect 4-1 record as the away favourite against Wests, you’d still be best off avoiding the head-to-head market.
Backing a high-scoring game has proven very profitable when these two sides get together, with seven of the last 12 games going Over the Total.
Both sides have combined for 50-points or more in their last three games, and with Parramatta’s defence proving a little untrustworthy week-to-week, it’s worth playing it safe with the Total on Sunday.
