Preview:
A game against the struggling Titans couldn’t have come at a better time for the Roosters.
With time running out, the Chooks are in danger of losing touch with the top two, but they might be able to close the gap against a Gold Coast side amid a five-game losing skid.
Speaking of streaks, the Roosters have won four straight games over the Titans dating back to 2016, and to make matters worse, the last time Gold Coast won on the road in Sydney was all the way back in 2013.
The jury is still out on Sydney as a premiership contender, but they should have no trouble disposing of the Titans – but just don’t expect it to come in blowout fashion.
If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know the Roosters have been a little up and down on the scoreboard. Despite pounding the Knights by 38-points a fortnight ago, last week’s 20-12 win over the Bulldogs left a lot to be desired.
The line also looks a little wide when you consider the Titans are 4-1 as the line underdog in away games against the Roosters.
With value hard to come by, back the Titans to keep this somewhat close.
Tip: Sydney Roosters at $1.13
