Bulldogs vs Knights Preview by Dean McHugh

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs and the Newcastle Knights are two teams stuck in the lower section of the NRL, both on four points. Both teams have played six games and have near-identical records, propped up by two wins and four losses. While both teams have lost by acceptable margins, the Bulldogs have looked superior on paper. Given that this one is at their home, too, a Bulldogs winning result is the best option for prospective bettors.

Round 7 puts two sides stuck in the same spot on the ladder. Canterbury and Newcastle have each played six, won two, lost four and sit on four points. Neither has been blown off the park in defeat, though the Bulldogs have been tidier in how they’ve gone about it. Playing at home helps their case too. Anyone reading NRL Expert Tips before this one will notice the gap is thin. The latest NRL betting odds lean towards Canterbury, and NRL betting predictions point the same way. Still, two inconsistent teams can swing either way, so watch team lists first.
