Manly Warringah Sea Eagles vs North Queensland Cowboys prediction
Manly Warringah Sea Eagles will be very happy to have home advantage when considering their recent splits. Whilst they’ve won each of their last five home fixtures, they’ve lost their last three on the road, underlining how difficult the Sea Eagles have found it on the road compared to playing in front of their own fans.
North Queensland Cowboys have struggled defensively lately, shipping large bundles of points which has led to three defeats from their last four. Whilst they were outstanding against Penrith Panthers last time out, they’ve been inconsistent across the season and it’s difficult to see them replicating that on the road, so consider backing the Sea Eagles and that formidable recent home record.
