Panthers vs. Broncos Predictions

—

Best Bet

Broncos –2.5 @ $1.90

The Panthers might have won both meetings in 2024, but the 2025 Panthers are a shell of their former selves. They have a 2-6 record following a poor 26-10 loss to the Sea Eagles last week, and the Broncos come off a big win over the Bulldogs.

It was played in wet conditions, but the big Broncos forward pack was destructive, and they could do the same against an undersized Panthers pack on Sunday. The Panthers confidence levels are low, and that won’t help matters.

Nathan Cleary isn’t playing his best, and the players they lost last year, including Jarome Luai, have taken the excitement out of the back line. They look run-of-the-mill now, and the Broncos are our best bet to take advantage.

The –2.5 line is generous for a team that should win by at least a converted try.

Same Game Multi

Broncos -2.5, Jesse Arthars Try Scorer, Selwyn Cobbo Anytime Try Scorer, Over 45.5 @ $7.50

Bookmakers don’t have an overly high line at 45.5 points, but there could be plenty of tries scored on Sunday. They scored just 20 points in their most recent meeting, but with the Broncos scoring 42 last week and the Panthers allowing 26, it could be a big score.

We’re sticking with Jesse Arthars in the try scoring ranks. We backed him the last few weeks and he hasn’t let us down with five tries in his last four games. Punters get $1.76 for Arthars to score a try against the Panthers, and those odds are well worth including.

The same goes for Cobbo, who has only one try from his last five games, but he should be back to his best. He’s a power finisher, and it could be a game that becomes wide open in the second half, which is where he excels.

Best Value Bet

Jesse Arthars 3+ Tries @ $12.00

We are doubling down on Arthars to have a big game, and there is good value for the Broncos winger to score a hattrick.

He does more than just finish off tries. He actively goes looking for the ball, and that makes him a real threat to put more than two tries on the board, especially with Ben Hunt and Adam Reynolds giving him quality ball to work with.
