Best Bet

Eels @ $2.28

Bet Now

There is good value with the Eels in head-to-head markets, and they looked good when beating the Titans last week without their halves.

They get Dylan Brown back from suspension, which is an excellent thing for the Eels, especially against a Dragons team getting their State of Origin players back.

There won’t be much between these teams, but getting $2.28 for the Eels is an excellent price. They have a 24-17-2 lifetime edge over the Dragons, and the Dragons come off consecutive losses to the Dolphins and Sharks.

Therefore, our best bet for Dragons vs. Eels is the visitors, who could make a late run at the finals.

Same Game Multi

Eels H2H, Josh Addo-Carr Anytime Try Scorer, Zac Lomax Anytime Try Scorer, Under 46.5 @ $13.25

Bet Now

We’re looking at the senior players for the Eels to stand out, including Josh Addo-Carr and Zac Lomax. Addo-Carr threatened to score a try last week, and although he didn’t cross the line, he set up a few tries.

He has only one try from his last five games, but he’s the $1.80 favourite for the Eels to score, and he’s our leading pick for the game. We also like Lomax, who scored a double earlier this year before undertaking Origin duties.

Lomax’s kicking was the difference in State of Origin Game 2, and although they could have dented his confidence, he played well last week. He’s good enough to score on the wing at $1.89 odds.

The Dragons could struggle to score points, so include under 46.5 points. Our final score prediction has the Eels winning 20-16, so there is enough room to move for under players.

Best Value Bet

Joey Lussick Anytime Try Scorer @ $10.00

Bet Now

Joey Lussick has become a try-scoring freak with two tries in his last four games, including one last week.

The Eels forward isn’t a noted try scorer, but he’s loving life, and we’re happy to take the double-figure odds for him to score again.

It would be mayhem if he scored in consecutive weeks and we’re here for it.
