Key Points

The favourite has won each of Newcastle’s last eight matches
Each of the Dolphins’ last five interstate matches as underdogs have gone OVER the total match points line.
Newcastle has scored 31 or more points in each of its last three matches as a favourite.

This shapes as a beauty with the Knights and Dolphins going at it in the final game of the NRL’s home & away” season, with the result determining the last team to qualify for the finals.

The Dolphins boosted their finals hopes with a big win over the Brisbane Broncos last weekend, knocking over their older brothers 40-6, putting them on the verge of making the finals for the first time in their history.

While the Knights struggled earlier in the season, they have hit their straps at the right time, scoring 124 points in the last four rounds. With a lot to play for, they can make the finals with a win in this crucial game.

While the Knights are renowned for the defence, I am confident that this should be a high scoring clash, enough so to cover the over 51.5.

Each of the Dolphins’ last five interstate matches as underdogs have gone OVER the total match points line and they have averaged 25 points per game this season, while Newcastle has scored 31 or more points in each of its last three matches as a favourite.
