North Queensland Cowboys vs Brisbane Broncos Preview
Game of the round. North Queensland has won nine of its last 10 matches and they’re taking on rivals the Broncos who have won seven of their last 8 games,
The Cowboys have opened as favourites which is fair enough given they beat the Broncos pretty convincingly when they last met in March.
The Broncos looks to be a much better team now though and while I’m still backing the Cowboys I think this will go down to the wire.
Betting Update:
Plenty of interest in this game which is no surprise but it seems punters have taken a liking to the Cowboys.
They touched $1.58 this week but have since firmed into $1.48. The Broncos sit at $2.65 but have had some support.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping North Queensland Cowboys to win at $1.48 odds.
