THE PREDICTION
Cronulla Sharks and Newcastle Knights meet in a potentially pivotal contest in terms of their respective top eight hopes. The Sharks suffered a second loss in a row last week while the Knights were able to flip that form as they claimed a second successive victory. The form of the teams coming into this points to a Newcastle win and with Cronulla producing such an underwhelming effort in defeat to New Zealand Warriors last week, the Knights are tipped to secure a third consecutive win.
