THE PREDICTION
After winning their opening 12 matches of the campaign, Penrith Panthers have now lost their last two and that has seen them surrender top spot on the ladder as a result. They will be looking to return to winning ways here and will be confident of doing so with their Origin stars back in the fold but they face a tricky clash with Sydney Roosters. The away side have done a good job to deal with their long injury list so far this season but facing a focused Penrith outfit who also boast home advantage, the hosts should prove to be too good in this one.
