The Parramatta-Penrith rivalry is one of the hottest in the NRL and that sets up for a big under games.

Penrith are the best defensive team in the premierships, conceding 19 or fewer in nine of their last 10. Parramatta have put up some decent defensive showings but it is their attack that is worth noting: they have scored 15 or fewer in four of their last five. They just don’t have the attack to seriously threaten Penrith.

The under hits at 62.5% when a 12.5-poiunt underdog is off a bye. The under is 25-13 when the Eels play at CommBank while it is 10-3 when they are an outsider of 6.5 or more at the ground.

The under is 9-3 when Penrith play at night at CommBank while it is 19-9 when the Panthers are off a loss.

Bet the under with confidence in this one.
