Cronulla Sharks vs South Sydney Rabbitohs prediction
Cronulla Sharks are finishing the regular season with a flourish as the side in fourth spot currently look to place as high as possible. Four wins in a row is testament to that as the Cronulla offense continues to blitz their opponents, most recently putting up 48 points against Manly Sea Eagles. That made it 134 points scored across Cronulla last three matches.
South Sydney Rabbitohs are in for a challenging 80 minutes as they try and contain what has been such a formidable attack in recent weeks. When considering their struggles on the road, they are unlikely to match up to this Sharks whirlwind and backing Cronulla has to be favoured on this occasion.
