Gold Coast Titans vs Cronulla Sharks prediction
Gold Coast Titans sit only four points above the bottom of the NRL table, having now lost 15 of their 21 matches this season. They’ve also been beaten in each of their last three, so there’s little excuse for Cronulla Sharks not to capitalise on their opponent’s struggles as they bid to finally seal their top eight finish.
When taking into account the holes defensively amid the Titans’ line-up, Cronulla should be able to improve from an attacking perspective following two poor performances on that front. Expect them to play with more fluidity and do enough to ultimately pick up the points against poor opposition.
