South Sydney have won seven of the last 10 against Canterbury while they have covered a remarkable 17 of their last 20 at Accor.

Alex Johnston is the greatest tryscorer of all-time and is showing no signs of slowing down with a remarkable 25 in 17 games this year – his best ever strike rate.

Matt Burton has looked much more comfortable since shifting to the centres, scoring three tries in his last six games.

Canterbury are certainly at their weakest defensively on their right edge and that sets up nicely for the crafty Cody Walker. The Rabbitohs veteran has seven tries in 19 games this year and has five tries in his last 10 games against Canterbury. Walker is mammoth odds.
