Sea Eagles vs. Rabbitohs Predictions

Best Bet

The Sea Eagles are a hard team to predict, but after beating the Tigers 28-10, their confidence levels should be back up after losing three of their prior four games.

Facing the Rabbitohs should make life easier, with the Rabbitohs riding a long losing streak. However, we expect the Rabbitohs to show more fight this week, and that’s why we’re backing the Sea Eagles 1-12 at generous odds.

The current line is –9.5, which we’re not comfortable with. The Sea Eagles could win by around eight points, so there is more insurance with our best bet, and punters get much better odds of $3 compared to $1.90.

Same Game Multi

Jason Saab is always worth including in NRL same game multis. He’s a prolific try scorer for Manly, and he comes off a try-scoring performance against the Wests Tigers. We expect him to score on the wing this Sunday, so take the short odds.

Punters get much better odds for Alex Johnston to score at $2.35. We’re not sure why the Rabbitohs winger is paying those odds, but we’re taking the value. He has nine tries from his last five games, and despite carrying injuries, he keeps delivering.

It should be a high-scoring game, so include over 47.5 points. It’s a good line for teams that combined for 60 points in their first meeting in 2024.

Best Value Bet

Johnston knows how to score doubles in the NRL, and we’re lapping up the odds for the Rabbitohs winger on Sunday.

He has fallen out of favour with bookmakers, but we have identified him as a value player this week, so cash in with the $7 odds for him to score a double.
