Storm vs. Rabbitohs Predictions

Best Bet

Storm -13.5 @ $1.85

Big money has come for the Storm to cover the –13.5 spread, so the line could move to –14.5 on game day. It’s important to jump on the line whilst it’s available, but the Storm should easily account for the Rabbitohs.

After getting embarrassed by the Dolphins last week, they will want to bounce back. They’re still without Harry Grant, which is a big loss, but they’re playing a Rabbitohs team coming off a 32-0 loss to the Bulldogs, and the Storm attack is much better than the Bulldogs.

The Storm have a whopping 34-7 record against the Rabbitohs, which is outstanding. They won 28-16 in their most recent meeting, which followed a 54-20 home win. That’s the best form guide for this game, and the Storm could run up a big score.

Same Game Multi

Storm -13.5, Xavier Coates Anytime Try Scorer, Ryan Papenhuyzen Anytime Try Scorer, Over 47.5 @ $5.75

Our Storm vs. Rabbitohs same game multi returns only $5.75, but it has a good chance of cashing, especially the try scorer options.

We’re going with Xavier Coates and Ryan Papenhuyzen to score. Coates has scored three tries from his last two games, and he’s one of the more consistent NRL wingers in the competition, so the $1.67 is worth including.

Papenhuyzen has a try in four of his last five games, and punters get slightly better odds of $1.85. He is likely to score off a Jahrome Hughes kick, and the Rabbitohs defence could open up. It’s also why we like over 47.5 points, and the Storm should score most of them.

Best Value Bet

Storm –23.5 @ $3.28

Punters can pick your own line, and we’ve chosen Storm –23.5 as the best value bet of the game.

They can put teams away quick and early, like we saw when they defeated the Warriors 42-14 and the Sea Eagles 48-24. Something similar is likely against a Rabbitohs team that has struggled recently.

Punters get $3.28, so although there is added risk, it’s worth taking for some value. You can take a lower line for lower odds, but we’re predicting the Storm to post an impressive win.
