Canterbury Bulldogs vs Manly Sea Eagles Round 26 Tips – 30/08/24

Manly are coming off a shock loss to the bottom-of-the-table Tigers at Leichhardt and will be looking to get back in the win column on Friday night at Stadium Australia. The Bulldogs are on a roll after winning five in a row and will be looking to put on a show in front of their home-ground fans!

Prediction: Bulldogs to Win

The Bulldogs are undefeated at home this season, compiling an impressive 10-0 record. At the same time, the Sea Eagles have struggled to win away from Brookie, managing just 3 wins and suffering 7 losses. 

After losing to the horrific Tigers, the Sea Eagles’ confidence must have dipped. Expect Manly to struggle with Doggies’ hard-nosed defence. Don’t be surprised if the Canterbury supporters get in the head of the Manly players.

Winning Margin – Bulldogs 1 to 12 Points

The Bulldogs have relied heavily on their defence this season to grind out wins. Amazingly, the Doggies only concede 16 points per game, which is the best in the NRL. 

We don’t expect Canterbury to blow out Manly, especially when the Sea Eagles rack up on average 26 points per game. This should be a close contest with quite a few lead changes, but in the end, the Bulldogs should win by a try or two.
