Wests Tigers vs. Dragons Predictions

Ended

The NRL continues with Round 24 action between the Wests Tigers vs. Dragons on Sunday, August 16 at 4:05pm at CommBank Stadium.

There isn’t much between the Tigers and Dragons with NRL betting markets, and it should be an entertaining game to end the week.

Best Bet

Dragons @ $1.91

Bet Now

The Dragons scored one of the biggest upsets of the year when beating the Sharks last week, and they should be shorter than $1.91 against the Tigers.

The Tigers have had a shocking year after starting well, and they couldn’t have played worse against the Eels in Round 22 if they had tried. It was a terrible performance, and one of a team that has given up all hope.

There is much more momentum with the Dragons, who haven’t had a good year, but they have always played with effort. The same can’t be said for the Tigers, so we’re backing the Dragons to prevail on the road.

The $1.91 odds are better than expected, so include them in NRL multi bets this week.

Same Game Multi

Dragons H2H, Tyrell Sloan Anytime Try Scorer, Setu Tu Anytime Try Scorer, Under 47.5 @ $11.25

Bet Now

Tyrell Sloan is an enigmatic player for the Dragons, but he’s back to playing his best after scoring four tries in his last five games. It’s all about confidence for one of the quickest players in the NRL, so we’re happy to include him in NRL SGM picks.

Setu Tu might be a liability on defence, but he knows how to score tries. He has a try in each of his last two games, and he’s another Dragons player with momentum and confidence on his side.

We’re also including under 47.5 points in our multi. The Tigers’ attack has been woeful, and they could struggle to score anywhere close to 20 points, so under 47.5 is a good bet.

Best Value Bet

Dragons 13+ @ $4.00

Bet Now

This game comes down to who wants it more, and based on recent form, the Dragons want it much more than the Tigers.

It could be a blowout performance for the Dragons, who defeated the Sharks 24-16 last week, which was a mammoth performance for a team in 17th on the ladder.

A repeat will see them easily handle the Tigers, so take the $4 odds for a 13+ win.
