PARRAMATTA EELS FORM: EELS LOSE AGAIN
Parramatta lost for a third game in succession while they have managed just one success in their last nine outings after going down to Newcastle Knights. It has been a wretched run of form and their need for a permanent head coach is evident.

SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS FORM: BUNNIES TURNING THEIR SEASON AROUND
Having struggled for such a long period of time this season, South Sydney made it four straight wins as they nilled Manly Sea Eagles last time out and their eyes will now be focussed on the top eight rather than looking behind them.
LAST FIVE: LWWWW

PARRAMATTA EELS VS SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS PREDICTION
Parramatta Eels are in a state of crisis after losing eight of their last nine matches and there does not appear to be any light at the end of the tunnel based on their recent efforts. They now face an in-form South Sydney Rabbitohs side that are turning their season around and another win here would put them right in the mix for a top eight spot.
