Gold Coast Titans vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Predictions: Titans to sneak home

Two struggling teams will meet in the NRL on Saturday (KO 06:00) at the Cbus Super Stadium as the Gold Coast Titans play host to the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

The Titans are 14th in the table after collecting only 10 points from their first 11 games, while the Rabbitohs are propping up the standings.

South Sydney have won only two games all season, but they come into this contest on the back of a shock 42-26 victory over the Parramatta Eels, while the Titans beat the Brisbane Broncos 36-34 in their last outing. Below you can find my Gold Coast Titans vs Sydney Rabbitohs prediction.

Team News

Titans full-back Jayden Campbell is back among the reserves for the first time since suffering a knee injury in Round 6.

Playmaker Kieran Foran has recovered from a hamstring injury to take his place in the squad, while Phil Sami and Jojo Fifita are also back in contention.

Rabbitohs half-back Cody Walker has returned from a calf injury to partner Jack Wighton in the halves, meaning Dion Teaupa drops to 18th man.

Richie Kennar returns at centre, so Michael Chee Kam can return to the back row.

Gold Coast Titans vs Sydney Rabbitohs Odds

The Titans are 8/11 favourites to win, with the draw priced at 22/1 and the Rabbitohs 11/10 to claim the spoils.

Gold Coast can be backed at 20/21 at -2 on the handicap, while it is 10/11 for there to be over 53.5 points in the match.

Gold Coast Titans to win @ 8/11

While both teams come into the game on the back of morale-boosting wins, the Titans have been more consistent in recent weeks and they have strung some decent performances together.

Even without some of their key players, Gold Coast have managed to win two of their last three matches, overcoming the Cowboys and the Broncos.

South Sydney may have overcome the Eels last time out, but that was their first victory since the end of March and just their second in total.

While just two points separates these two heading into the clash, the Titans have that extra bit of consistency right now and can claim the spoils.

South Sydney Rabbitohs +8 @ 1/2

While the Titans should have enough quality to get over the line, this could turn out to be a tight game and giving South Sydney a head start is tempting.

The Rabbitohs showed what they are capable of last time out, racking up over 40 points in victory over the Eels, and that will have provided a much-needed confidence boost.

Putting together a run has been the issue for the Rabbitohs, but they do have some momentum now and backing them at +8 on the handicap could be a prudent play.
