THE PREDICTION
Melbourne Storm and Parramatta Eels will both be desperate to prevail here but for different reasons. They have each managed to win just one of their last three matches after suffering disappointing losses last week but it is the Storm that will really need to improve after a really underwhelming showing against Newcastle Knights. However, they are on home soil and having lost just two of their home games this season, they can produce a sufficient response here and can claim the spoils.
