Titans vs Broncos
The Titans will be looking to get another win over the Broncos, after already beating them earlier this season in Round 12. The visitors will be looking for revenge as they seek just their second win from their last eight matches. The home side on the other hand are looking to continue their purple patch with four wins from their last five outings. The Titans made a second half comeback last week against the Dolphins to win 21-14, with Kieran Foran icing a field goal in the 73rd minute to put the Gold Coast side ahead by seven points. This marks the Titans seventh win of the season where they sit in 14th place and on equal number of points with the Broncos.
TIP: Titans Coach Des Hasler confirmed that Jaimin Jolliffe was tracking well to make his return from a pectoral injury that has sidelined him since Round 11 but AJ Brimson was still another week away from his return. For the Broncos, Corey Oates comes in on the wing for Selwyn Cobbo while in the forwards Brendan Piakura returns after missing last week’s game with a quad injury. Kobe Hetherington goes to the bench. The bookies have the Broncos as favorites but I am backing the Titans for the upset win. The best odds on this bet are as follows: Tictacbets 2.50, Betway 2.50 and Bettabets 2.50

PREDICTION
These two sides previously met in Round 12, when the Titans found themselves in 16th and the Broncos in 5th, not many would have predicted that that match would be the start of the Broncos slump, and that the Titans would go on the beat Brisbane and then won four of their following seven games after having a rough start to the season. Both sides are fighting to keep their season alive and unless the Broncos take a harsh look at themselves and make change, they are staring down a painful barrel right now. As much as I hate to say this, I think the Titans will come out on top and do a number on the Broncos. I predict a home win by 7 points.

Sports crazy fan that follows all major sport but the game with the oval ball is my real passion. Was an age level rugby coach and a huge supporter of the Springboks and diehard Liverpool man. I’m an experienced punter and sports writer whose predictions/tips are sure to stir up the emotions. I love the occasional wager on the underdog.
