THE PREDICTION
Two struggling teams go head-to-head with both New Zealand Warriors and Newcastle Knights desperate to come out on top of this contest. The pair have struggled for any real consistency this year in terms of results as well as performances and it could be a tough watch with both lacking quality. The Warriors have lost their last three and won just one of their last six while the Knights have lost eight of their last nine so it is tough to pick a winner in this one. However, with both struggling defensively, it should be a fairly open game and there should be at least 40 points scored.
