Sea Eagles vs Storm Preview by Dean McHugh

The Sea Eagles have been narrowly touched off in their previous three games, so perhaps the visit of second-placed Melbourne is not what they need right now. Especially seeing as the Sharks have won six of their last seven, with their only defeat coming against top-placed Cronulla a couple of weeks back.

However, this is a fixture that appears to favour the home side as the team playing at home has won the previous five games, so perhaps all is not lost for the Sea Eagles. With that said, they need to start much better if they are to stand any chance of being competitive here.

They have trailed at half-time in four of their last five matches. In stark contrast, the Storm have not been behind at half-time in any of their previous six. So, let’s take the Storm to be leading at half-time.

Bet – Storm to be Leading at Half-Time
