Raiders vs. Wests Tigers Predictions

—

Best Bet

Raiders –12.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We’re happy to take the Raiders –12.5 against a Tigers team that couldn’t hold on to a 12-point lead against the Cowboys with under 15 minutes to go.

It was another poor effort from the Tigers, and we haven’t seen many poor efforts from the Raiders, who come off big wins over the Panthers and Sea Eagles. The win over the Panthers came in dramatic fashion, which should only increase their confidence levels.

It’s hard to know what the Tigers will produce week-to-week, but we know that the Raiders will deliver and covering the –12.5 spread shouldn’t be too difficult at home in ideal conditions on Saturday afternoon.

Same Game Multi

Raiders -12.5, Jed Stuart Anytime Try Scorer, Kaeo Weekes Anytime Try Scorer, Over 50.5 @ $7.25

Bet Now

After scoring the game winner against Penrith, Kaeo Weekes’ confidence levels should be high. It was an amazing try when capping off an Ethan Strange breakaway, and we’re backing Weekes to score another try at $2.10 odds.

We also like Jed Stuart to get back to try-scoring form. He showed up early when making his NRL debut this year, and the coach’s son is overdue a try. He is paying $1.74 to score, which is on the shorter side of value, but he’s worth including in Raiders vs. Wests Tigers SGM picks.

It could be an open and high-scoring contest, so we’re including over 50.5 points. The final score could be around 46-18, so take the current line.

Best Value Bet

First Half Points Over 24.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We predict a lot of first half points, and the 24.5 line is well worth including in NRL picks as a value bet.

Both teams could hit the ground running, and the Tigers often have no interest in playing defence early. Therefore, the Raiders could run in a few opening half tries.

The first half score should be around 18-10, which gives punters some room to work with.
