Bet Of The Day August 27 – read on below for our reasoning behind today’s best bet.

Key Points

Sea Eagles have won eight of the last nine meetings between the teams
Bulldogs have lost eight of their last 10 games
Bulldogs have leaked 34+ points in their last seven defeats
Bulldogs have leaked 42+ points in five of their last six defeats
Bulldogs have seen Over 43.5 total points in their last 10 games

We’re off to the NRL for today’s best bet as the Bulldogs and Sea Eagles look to try and begin ending their respective seasons on a positive note.

Both teams are out of the finals race and in the Bulldogs’ case, they’ve been languishing near the bottom of the ladder all season.

Canterbury made various marquee signings in a bid to launch a finals assault in 2023, but they’ve arguably gone backwards, especially in defence.

The Bulldogs have the worst points differential out of any team in the competition and their defence has been absolutely shambolic over the last couple of months.

Indeed, the Bulldogs have leaked 34+ points in their last seven defeats and 42+ in five of their last six. Opposition teams have been running riot and the Sea Eagles will be relishing the chance to throw the ball around at Accor Stadium today.

Manly’s season was effectively over when Tom Trbojevic went down with yet another injury, but they’ve been galant in defeat over the last fortnight, losing by 1-12 margins to top four sides the Warriors and Panthers.

The Sea Eagles have won eight of their last nine meetings with the Bulldogs, including beating them by 25 points earlier in the season.

We’ll back Manly to prevail again here, while for some extra value, we’re also jumping on Over 43.5 total points, which has landed Canterbury’s last 10 straight matches.
