Best Bet

Wests Tigers +8.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

Backing the Tigers comes with danger, especially against a red-hot Raiders team, but we’re happy to stick with them.

They lost narrowly to the Panthers 18-14 last week, which followed another four-point loss, so the Tigers have been knocking on the door of a win, and it could come against the Raiders with the help of home ground advantage.

The Tigers won the most recent meeting against the Raiders 48-24, so that should be firmly in their minds, and they only need Jarome Luai to play well at halfback to have any chance of covering the +8.5 spread.

It should be a close game, so take the points on offer.

Same Game Multi

Wests Tigers +8.5, Sunia Turuva Anytime Try Scorer, Xavier Savage Anytime Try Scorer, Under 47.5 @ $13.50

Bet Now

Punters get value odds for Sunia Turuva and Xavier Savage to score tries, especially with Turuva who pays $2.05.

The Tigers winger got back to try scoring form last week when crossing the line against the Panthers, and he’s still one of the best finishers in the NRL. He just needs good ball from his inside players to score a four pointer.

Savage is another winger who should score a try. He has five tries from his last five games, and although he didn’t score against the Rabbitohs, he should get an opportunity to score. Punters get $1.62 for Savage, so he’s worth including in NRL same game multis.

Under 47.5 is on the basis that it should be a tight defensive game. The final score could be around 22-16, so we’re happy to include the under in our NRL picks.

Best Value Bet

Jarome Luai Anytime Try Scorer @ $5.60

Bet Now

The Tigers leader needs to lead by example, and it’s fair to say that he has been disappointing since leaving the Panthers.

He needs to attack the line with his excellent sidestep, and if he looks to run the ball, he could cross for a rare try.

The odds are worth the risk, so include Luai in your picks at $5.60.
