South Sydney and Newcastle are both looking to secure a spot in the Top 8 but it is Newcastle that are playing far better heading into this key clash.
Best Bet
Newcastle will be sweating on Kalyn Ponga but even if he does miss Newcastle should be too strong for a Rabbitohs side that has really seen their form go south with the absence of Latrell Mitchell.
Defence is a key indicator. The Knights have conceded 22 or fewer in six of their last seven while the Rabbitohs have conceded 28 or more in four of their last six.
Newcastle have won four straight against Souths and scored at least 28 in the last five meetings.
The Knights are 30-18 ATS in day games, 26-17 ATS off a win and 23-16 ATS when under $2.00. Souths are 17-29 against the spread when playing a Top 8 team.
Newcastle are well over the odds in this one.
Same Game Multi
Dylan Lucas has been airborne with eight tries in his last seven games.
Fletcher Sharpe has 29 tries in 40 games and can create for himself anywhere on the paddock.
Tallis Duncan has enjoyed a sensational year where he has scored seven tries in 15 games.
Value Bet
Trey Mooney has enjoyed a breakout year since moving from the Raiders to the Knights and it has seen him cross five times this year. Two of those came when the Knights last play the Rabbitohs when the talented prop crossed for the first and last try. The $7 on offer seems a very big price.
