Canberra Raiders vs Cronulla Sharks: Predictions, Odds & Betting Tips

The Raiders and the Sharks would both be terribly disappointed with how their seasons have started, particularly after opening the year with a win. This shapes as a critical game for both clubs. The Raiders are nudging favouritism but with Josh Papalii suspended, they look to be under the odds. The Sharks have won and covered four of the last five meetings with two wins in the last three at Canberra Stadium. The Sharks tend to bounce back off a loss, covering 20 of 33 off defeat. The Raiders have not covered any of their last three at home and have covered just five of 17 at home when north of $1.70. Cronulla should prove too strong. Braydon Trindall is a fabulous tryscorer with eight tries in 16 games, all at big prices. Sam Stonestreet has 17 tries in 19 NRL games. KL Iro comes off a super tryscoring season where he crossed 12 times in 14 games last year.
