Wests Tigers vs Brisbane Broncos prediction
Brisbane Broncos’ underwhelming campaign is still yet to catch fire and they are coming off the back of defeat against North Queensland Cowboys, failing to back up their hard-fought win over Gold Coast Titans on the previous weekend. It doesn’t get easier for them with a trip to in-form Wests Tigers now on deck.
The hosts have won their last three NRL games, racking up 96 points in the process, including a resounding home victory over Newcastle Knights. Whilst Brisbane are always going to pose a challenge offensive, the absence of Reece Walsh is clearly hurting them and the recent potency of Wests Tigers’ play makes them well worth backing in this contest.
