The Storm versus Raiders could easily be a one-sided affair in favour of the home team. Melbourne tops the ladder and finds themselves on a three game win streak. In contrast, the Raiders have lost three of their last four and find themselves on the outskirts of the playoff places.
However, I would be slightly cautious for those looking to place big money at short odds as the Raiders have won two of the last three against the Storm. They have also won on two of their previous three visits to Melbourne. With that said, the way they played last week against the Tigers, I can’t see there being a shock on the cards here.
I see the Storm racking up quite a few points in this one, and with them missing some key players due to Origin duty, the Raiders could also get over the try line frequently. Melbourne’s games have gone over the total set here on four of the last five occasions, as has the Raiders previous four in a row.
