Cowboys vs. Broncos Predictions - NRL Round 21 2026Ended

The NRL continues with Round 21 action between the Cowboys vs. Broncos on Saturday, July 25 at 7:35pm at Queensland Country Bank Stadium.

The all-Queensland battle should entertain the crowd, as the Broncos look to salvage their season.

Best Bet

Broncos @ $1.72

Bet Now

The Broncos pulled off a big upset against the Panthers last week, and they’re now desperately seeking consistency towards the end of the season.

They need a lot of luck to make the finals, and winning out might not be enough. However, a big performance against the Cowboys would go a long way, and they’re good enough to get it done on the road.

North Queensland was disappointing against the Dolphins last week, and the Cowboys have found it tough bouncing back from a loss. They are a tough team to trust, which is why most of the money has come for the most physical Broncos outfit.

If the Broncos turn up with a positive attitude, they should come away with a crucial road victory. Last year’s champions need to show some resolve, and they have a good record against the Cowboys.

Same Game Multi

Broncos H2H, Josiah Karapani Anytime Try Scorer, Reece Walsh Anytime Try Scorer, Over 48.5 @ $7.25

Bet Now

Josiah Karapani has become a reliable try scorer for the Broncos, boasting three tries from his last five games. He scored a key try against the Panthers, and the $1.96 odds to score on Saturday is a good price.

We also like Reece Walsh to score an overdue win. It has been an odd season for the Broncos player, but he possesses elite talent, and he could finish the season with a flurry of tries. Punters get $2.05 for Walsh to score, so include him in NRL SGM picks.

Tries should be the order of the night, so we’re backing 48.5 points. The teams could trade tries for most of the game, and their latest meeting resulted in 66 points.

Best Value Bet

Broncos 1-12 @ $3.10

Bet Now

It should be a close contest throughout, but we have the Broncos doing enough to take the win late.

Punters get value odds of $3.10 for the Broncos to win by 1-12 points, and those odds are better than expected.

We priced this option at around $2.75, so include it in NRL picks this week as a value option.
