- Roosters have won three of their last four games
- Sharks have lost their last three games at PointsBet Stadium
- Sharks have seen 44+ points in all five of their games this season

We’re off to the NRL for today’s best bet as the Roosters look to extend their recent dominant record over the Sharks.
The Roosters have owned the Sharks over the last few years, winning the last seven meetings between the teams, while they are also unbeaten at PointsBet Stadium since 2016.
Cronulla haven’t started the season well after impressing last year, losing three of their five games, while their defence has been extremely poor.
Craig Fitzgibbon’s side blew a 20-0 lead against the Warriors in their last outing, crumbling to a 32-30 defeat in front of their home fans.
That was their third straight loss at PointsBet Stadium dating back to the finals last season.
With key forwards Dale Finucane and Toby Rudolf sidelined, the Sharks will find the going tough again tonight against a star-studded Roosters outfit.
The Roosters have won three of their last four games and will be determined to bounce back after a loss to the Storm on the road last week.
James Tedesco returns to the team at fullback after missing last week with concussion symptoms. Tedesco has scored a try in his last three games at PointsBet Stadium, so he’ll be relishing the chance for another big performance here.
We’ll be backing the Roosters to win with Over 35.5 total points. As mentioned, the Sharks have been leaking a lot of points all season and have seen 44+ points in all five of their games this season.
The Roosters have seen Over 35.5 points in four of their five outings and the last four meetings between the teams have produced at least 44 points.
