Best Bet

Cowboys 1-12 @ $3.00

Bet Now

It should be a close game between the Cowboys and Sea Eagles, and although it would be safer to back the Cowboys head-to-head at $1.70, we’re happy to take the value for a 1-12 win at $3.

They were hard done by last week to have a draw against the Panthers, which was a good bounce back following a loss to the Warriors. They looked good prior with four consecutive wins, so they are the better team in this matchup.

The Sea Eagles have only one win from their last five games, and although they’re struggling, they are good enough to keep it close against the Cowboys. We predict the Cowboys winning by 8-10 points with a late flurry.

Same Game Multi

Cowboys H2H, Murray Taulagi Anytime Try Scorer, Jason Saab Anytime Try Scorer, Under 50.5 @ $11.50

Bet Now

Our final score prediction is Cowboys 28-20, which cashes Cowboys head-to-head and under 50.5 points. The score was 42-12 to the Sea Eagles earlier this year, but a lot of water has gone under the bridge since then.

Looking to score tries are Murray Taulagi and Jason Saab, who both didn’t score last week. Taulagi had been in fine scoring form with five tries from his previous four games, so he should get back to try-scoring form on Saturday.

The same goes for Saab, who appears to be playing with a minor injury, but his elite speed is still there. He scored in three consecutive games prior to last week, and he’s quick enough to get around the Cowboys defence for a four pointer.

Best Value Bet

Jason Saab First Try Scorer @ $9.50

Bet Now

The Sea Eagles might start better with a Saab try, and he’s paying value odds of $9.50.

He is a winger who likes to get involved in the action and not just sit out on his wing, and that bodes well for first try scorer backers. He looks for work, and a good pass from Daly Cherry-Evans could see him in space.

Saab only needs to find space to score tries because of his elite speed.
