Cronulla Sharks vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Prediction

It has been some start for the Rabbitohs who have won both of their opening matches as they have shrugged off their defensive issues from pre-season. Wayne Bennett’s men have beaten the Dolphins by two points and then the Dragons by a solitary point last week so while they have been winning matches, they have both been incredibly tight matches.

They now face their toughest test of the season to date as they make the trip to face Cronulla Sharks and the hosts have won one and lost one so far. Their loss came at the hands of the Panthers in Vegas but they bounced back nicely last week to beat the Cowboys 36-12.

There is every chance that they outclass the Rabbitohs here and put their bright start to the season on hold. They have plenty of firepower to cause the Rabbitohs defence issues and we expect them to pick up a win by a double-digit margin.

Cronulla Sharks vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Tip: Cronulla Sharks to win by a margin of 13 points or more
