Round 24: Sea Eagles v Warriors match preview

The Manly Sea Eagles will be looking to lock in their NRL finals spot this Friday night as they host the New Zealand Warriors in their round 24 clash at 4 Pines Park.

Last Saturday, it was a dominant display from the Sea Eagles as they beat the Raiders by 22 points on the road. Trailing after the first 25 minutes, Manly then flipped the switch and scored seven consecutive tries through seven different scorers.

Winning four of their past five games, the Sea Eagles have climbed to sixth on the NRL ladder. At home, it is no surprise to see them priced as $1.20 favourites at Unibet.

There is just one change for Anthony Seibold’s side this week, as prop Josh Aloiai returns from a knee injury in place of Toafofoa Sipley.

Last Sunday, the Warriors went down to the Dolphins in an extra-time thriller. Trailing by 16 points at halftime, New Zealand clawed their way back into the game before ultimately falling just short.

Down in 14th spot on the ladder, the 2024 NRL Premiership campaign is all but finished for the Warriors. They have a 2-8 record on the road this season, so they come in as rank outsiders at $5 with Bet365.

Halfback Shaun Johnson, winger Marcelo Montoya and centre Adam Pompey all return for the Warriors this week. Ali Leiataua (concussion) and Te Maire Martin (neck) are out through injury, while Edward Kosi drops to the reserves.

Sea Eagles v Warriors betting strategy

With just one win — against the last-placed Tigers — from their past five matches, it is hard to see how the Warriors will turn their form around this Friday. Manly sit just three points outside the top four, so this is a must-win clash if they are to be considered premiership contenders. Back the Sea Eagles to win by 13 or more points at $1.67 with leading NRL bookmakers.

With the highest total points line of round 24 at 53.5, top Australian bookmakers expect this to be a high-scoring affair. Three of Manly’s last four matches have gone over the line, while the Warriors have conceded more than 33 points on average in their last four away games. At $1.90 with rugby league bookies, back this match to go over the total points line.

Scoring a try in each of Manly’s last three matches, five-eighth Luke Brooks has been a key part of their excellent form. At $3.90 with top NRL betting sites, the former Tiger offers excellent value to cross over once again.
