Penrith are going to have few issues with a depleted Broncos outfit.
Best Bet
Penrith -21.5 ($1.90)
Penrith have been near unbeatable at home riding an 18-game win streak and it is hard to see Brisbane getting close to them this week.
The Panthers have covered 19 of their last 28 at Penrith Stadium including four of five when favoured by more than two converted tries.
The Broncos have covered five straight against the Panthers and come off a very good showing against the Roosters but they come into this without their best player in Payne Haas and the Broncos are a different outfit on the road. They have covered just 11 of 32 away from Suncorp and just 6 of 21 on the road off conceding more than 24.
Expect the Panthers to win this and a win by 40-plus is not out of the reckoning.
Same Game Multi
Taylan May Try/Izack Tago Try/Stephen Crichton Try ($5.25)
Taylan May has six tries in three games this year and is a magnet for scoring.
Tago has scored four tries in five games and was desperately unlucky not to cross last start with a try disallowed and a selfless pass when he likely could have scored.
Crichton plays against the Broncos left edge that conceded two tries to Joey Manu last time out.
Value Bet
Liam Martin Try ($3.00)
Liam Martin has been a sneaky-good try-scoring play this year with three tries in four matches this year. He has now scored nine tries in his last 31 starts and the Broncos edge defence is looking anything but secure.
