Penrith Panthers vs Wests Tigers betting preview
If you have got through the first two uninspiring games of ‘Super Saturday’, you’ll be rewarded with what should be a gripping battle of the big cats out west.
The Penrith Panthers deservedly have $1.52 favouritism following a good victory over the Rabbitohs last start and could finish the round in first place if certain results fall their way.
The Wests Tigers have recorded back-to-back floggings to move up to sixth on the NRL ladder, but this presents their biggest test to date.
The Panthers have class all over the park and have the Tigers covered man-for-man in the forward pack.
The impressive part of Penrith in 2020 has been how physical their forwards are for 80 minutes, with relentless heavy contact paving the way for the likes of Nathan Cleary to create.

The duel to watch in this clash is Harry Grant vs Apisai Koroisau. Both hookers are having fantastic seasons and would be close to leading the best and fairest for their respective clubs.
The new addition to the ‘six again’ rule, which allows the referees can signal to restart the count if the markers are not square, needs to be taken into account for this clash.
Because of how creative both rakes are around the ruck, it is more than likely points will come from a bust through the middle of the field.
Dylan Edwards is a terrific support player at fullback for Penrith and will no doubt be right behind Koroisau any chance he gets to run, so the $17 for first tryscorer at BetOnline is well worth a pop.
For the same reason, Josh Reynolds ($26) is a huge chance to cross first too and offers great value to score any time at $6.50 with Sportsbet. He made his career on effort and pushing through the middle looking for chances.
You can get as much as $3.20 for Penrith to win by 1-12 points, while the 13+ option is paying up to $3. NRL betting sites are divided on those markets, so there is value both ways.
