Bet Of The Day July 28 – read on below for our reasoning behind today’s best bet.
Key Points
- Storm have won six of their last seven games in Melbourne
- Storm have won 10 of their last 15 games overall
- Storm have covered a -6.5 line in their last 10 wins this season
- Eels have failed to cover a +6.5 line in five of their last six defeats
- Storm haven’t lost back-to-back games since Rounds 2 & 3
- Storm have won three of their last four games vs Eels in Melbourne
We’re off to the NRL for today’s best bet as the Storm and Eels look to bounce back from disappointing defeats last week.
Have to back Melbourne at home and the line of -6.5 looks good value all things considered.
The Storm have won six of their last seven games in Melbourne and they very rarely lose two matches in a row – you can thank the Craig Bellamy spray for that.
Indeed, the Storm last lost consecutive games in Rounds 2 & 3, while they’ve also won three of their last four games against the Eels in Melbourne.
Playing at home, I can’t see the Storm dropping this clash, especially with their top four spot in jeopardy.
Parramatta have lost their momentum after five straight wins, coming into this encounter with two defeats from their last three, while some key players are sidelined with suspension, including Reagan Campbell-Gillard and Maika Sivo.
Some important stats where the line is concerned – the Storm have covered a -6.5 line in their last 10 victories this season, so when they win, they usually do it with room to spare.
Furthermore, the Eels have lost by seven points or more in five of their last six defeats. Backing the Storm to bounce back in style at Marvel tonight.
