Raiders vs. Wests Tigers Predictions - NRL Round 21 2026

The NRL continues with Round 21 action between the Raiders vs. Wests Tigers on Saturday, July 25 at 3:00pm at GIO Stadium.

The Raiders have turned their season around three consecutive wins, and a fourth straight looks likely against the struggling Tigers.

Best Bet

Raiders –13.5 @ $1.90

It didn’t look like the Raiders had any chance of making a finals push a few weeks ago, but they have turned things around impressively.

They kicked things off with a win over the Dragons before beating the Bulldogs and Rabbitohs. Those were quality wins, and they dominated the opposition over the last two weeks, which doesn’t bode well for the Tigers.

Nothing is going right for the Tigers, who have been shocking recently. They have scored only 22 points in their last four games, despite having a solid backline on paper, so something isn’t right behind closed doors.

It’s an all too familar case for the Tigers, and after being beaten 32-0 by the Bulldogs last week, we can’t see them hanging with the Raiders. That’s why the current line is –13.5, and that line could move to –14.5 during the week.

Include the Raiders –14.5 in your NRL picks this week, and it should be a comfortable victory.

Same Game Multi

Raiders -13.5, Xavier Savage Anytime Try Scorer, Kaeo Weekes Anytime Try Scorer, Over 51.5 @ $7.40

Xavier Savage didn’t score last week, but he had been enjoying a good spell. The Raider had four tries in a three-game span, and we expect his try-scoring form to return this week. Punters get $1.54, which provides a good boost to NRL SGM picks.

Kaeo Weekes wasn’t showing much effort at the mid-season mark, but he got back to his best with a try-scoring double last week. He showed his explosive speed when scoring a long-range try, and he is a top chance to score again.

The Raiders could produce a big score, and although the Tigers have struggled offensively, the final score could be around 40-14.

Best Value Bet

Raiders –25.5 @ $4.00

We’re taking the alternate line of Raiders –25.5, which pays a healthy $4 with bookmakers.

The Raiders defeated the Bulldogs by 24 points before getting off to a fast start against Souths, and if they start well again, the Tigers could be down by 20 at the half.

A big win is expected as the Raiders look to hunt down a top eight spot.
