THE PREDICTION

New Zealand Warriors were on the end of a fourth successive loss as they suffered a heavy defeat to South Sydney Rabbitohs last week which means they have been beaten in 11 of their last 12 matches. They will hope a return to home soil can aid them here and they have shown signs that they perform better in New Zealand based on their few efforts this season but Canterbury Bulldogs will still fancy their chances. The visitors failed to make it three straight wins as they went down to North Queensland Cowboys last time out but look capable of responding here having performed well of late and the away side should be able to make an immediate return to winning ways.
