Storm vs Dolphins Round 25 Tips – 24/08/24

Melbourne Storm vs the Dolphins NRL Round 25 betting tips. Our expert NRL tipster previews Saturday’s game at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium.

The Storm play host to the Dolphins on Saturday at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium. The Storm are coming off a fantastic win against the Panthers and are now likely to win the minor premiership.

The Dolphins have slipped to 9th place after losing to the Bulldogs in Queensland. This is a must-win game for Wayne Bennett’s side if they want to play finals footy this season.

Prediction: Storm to Win

The Storm have been extremely reliable this season. In 21 games, they’ve racked up 17 wins and suffered just four losses. The Storm also have an impressive 9-2 home record which the Dolphins will find very hard to overcome.

Melbourne is the most consistent team in the NRL and has a stingy defence combined with a lethal attack, resulting in a 172-point difference (2nd best in the NRL). The Dolphins just concede too many points (24+ per game) to trouble Melbourne.

Total Match Points: Over 51.5

The Dolphins constantly find themselves in high-scoring games, and we expect this game to follow that trend. In four of the Dolphins’ last six games, over 51.5 points have been scored.

Also, the last time the Storm and the Dolphins met back in Round 16, the two teams combined for 56 points with a total of nine tries, with seven of them coming in the first half. Have your drinks and snacks ready because tries could come at any second!
