New Zealand Warriors vs Manly Warringah Sea Eagles prediction
Incredibly, only one single point separates NRL leaders New Zealand Warriors and second-placed Penrith Panthers on point difference. Therefore, expect the Warriors to really go for it offensively. They are up against tough opposition though in Manly Warringah Sea Eagles, who have recorded back-to-back victories and back-to-back 44-point-games.
When taking this into account, we should see an extremely attacking contest on both sides. In New Zealand Warriors’ haste to score, they could wind up exposed defensively and the Sea Eagles are more than good enough to take advantage. With that in mind, back a large volume of points to be scored across 80 minutes.
New Zealand Warriors vs Manly Warringah Sea Eagles tip: Over 50.5 total points
