Newcastle Knights v Manly Sea Eagles Tips

The Manly Sea Eagles are likely to cover the handicap against the Newcastle Knights. Manly’s recent performances highlight their ability to dominate possession and convert opportunities, especially against teams with uneven form. The Knights have fought hard at home, but their defensive lapses in recent games suggest they’ll struggle to keep the margin tight.

Knights have to raise the level at home. They dominated in 3 of the last 4 head-to-head matches at home, and Eagles are not in good form. +6.5 handicap.

The Knights have shown resilience, but their inconsistency in the last month and struggles in head-to-head clashes tilt the balance. Home advantage for Newcastle offers some hope, but Manly’s cohesive play and ability to capitalize on scoring chances should see them emerge as the winners in a competitive battle.

Knights still struggle at home, but Eagles disappointed in the last 5 away games too and lost 3. Knights won 3 of the last 4 head-to-head matches at home. I will try them.
