Melbourne Storm vs Brisbane Broncos Preview

Arguably, the two most popular teams in the NRL face off in a match that captivates Australia. Melbourne Storm is fresh from a bye week but, despite not playing, is still level on points with the top six teams at the higher ebb of the ladder. The Brisbane Broncos are looking for an air of consistency, having amassed two wins and two losses thus far. One solid market to look for is the first team to score a try. In both of its prior home games, the Storm scored the first try, while the Broncos gave it up in their two previous away fixtures, leading to a decent chance that Melbourne would score the first one in this match.

Another idea would be to place a bet on the total points. These teams have been known to put on a good point total in this fixture. While the Storm’s games haven’t been high-scoring, the Broncos’ last two matches have been. There’s probably decent value in betting on a +49-point total.
