Parramatta Eels vs Canterbury Bulldogs prediction
Parramatta Eels couldn’t stop the bleeding recently in terms of conceding points. They’ve given up a score of 52 most recently against Gold Coast Titans which led to them losing a third straight match after having been beaten by Wests Tigers and Penrith Panthers prior to that, shipping 48 points against the Panthers.
This serves as a great opportunity for Canterbury Bulldogs when taking those results into account. The visitors were defensively excellent in their brilliant 32-16 triumph over Penrith last time out and if they maintain those performance levels, then it would be no surprise to see them come away with victory at CommBank Stadium.
