Broncos vs Roosters NRL Round 4 betting tips

Broncos vs Roosters NRL betting preview

Two wins in their last eight games against the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium spells danger for the Sydney Roosters in round four of the 2020 NRL season.

Even during their successful tilt at back-to-back premierships, this was a game the Tricolours were unable to win.

The Brisbane Broncos head into the game coming off a 28-point drubbing by Parramatta, so there is sure to be some bounce-back factor.

With no Kotoni Staggs, Alex Glenn, Tevita Pangai Jr, or David Fifita, it leaves the Broncos very thin on their edges in defence.

The left edge of the Roosters will almost certainly create the first try scoring chance in the game, so look to Boyd Cordner, Josh Morris, Luke Keary, or Daniel Tupou to cross for the opener.

Brisbane only managed to complete six sets in the second half against the Eels, but that has to be considered an aberration.

Even if they just complete their sets at the competition average, the Broncos should provide a good test for the Roosters this week.

Broncos vs Roosters margin bets

Big winning margins appear to be the order of the day under the new NRL rules, but there are mitigating factors to consider in this matchup. Brisbane are smarting after the Parra loss and this is a bogey ground for Sydney, so the Chooks by the small margin looks the better bet.

Broncos vs Roosters total points tip

Over 37.5 points for the game at $1.90 also looks to be extremely juicy considering the wealth of attacking talent the Roosters have across the park. You can also get $2.50 if you like the points spread into a Roosters win.

Broncos vs Roosters try scorer betting

As with any Broncos game, a few dollars on Corey Oates to be first try scorer is worth a go. Payne Haas as an anytime try scorer could fetch punters a nice return, as he scored first in the corresponding clash last year for a bonanza.
