Cowboys vs Broncos Betting Preview

Cowboys Preview: Riding Winning Streak

For those who bet on rugby, they know how well the Cowboys are playing at the moment. They come off three consecutive wins over the Bulldogs, Sharks, and Tigers, with two of those teams occupying a top-eight spot.

Having long been in the shadow of the Broncos, we’re not surprised to see the Cowboys heavily favored to beat their Queensland counterparts.

One team is heading to the playoffs, and it’s not the Broncos, so the Cowboys have every chance of improving their winning streak to four. Playing at home is another positive for the North Queensland Cowboys, and they have a 54% winning record at Country Bank Stadium.

Based on form, the Cowboys are the only team interested in this game. The -7.5 line is likely to move throughout the week, so bettors should jump on it.

Broncos Preview: Offseason Comes Calling

After playing in the NRL Grand Final last year, expectations were high for the Brisbane Broncos. However, they have failed miserably.

They come off two shocking losses, and that’s an understatement. They were thrashed 41-16 by the Bulldogs and 46-18 by the Titans – two teams they usually put to bed.

Heads will roll in Brisbane, and it’s only a matter of time before coaches and players get sacked. It’s not a good situation, and we’re not sure why it has happened.

The Broncos are only +7.5 underdogs because of their reputation, but they already have the postseason in their minds. Their holidays are booked, and that’s not a team bettors want to support.

We expect money to come for the Cowboys as bettors have lost confidence in the Broncos.

The line could have been -10.5, so bettors should enjoy the -7.5 line. The Cowboys are playing excellent rugby league, and playing at home adds a few points to their total.

The total points line is 51.5, so a high-scoring game is expected. Conditions should be ideal in North Queensland for running rugby, and there could be plenty of points on offer.

Cowboys vs Broncos Score Prediction

We expect the Cowboys to win 34-20, and they are easily the better team in this Round 23 matchup.

They are one of the form teams of the competition, having won their last three games, and the Broncos have been hammered by their recent opponents.

We can’t see the Broncos getting up for this game. They sit in the 14th spot on the NRL ladder, and our Cowboys vs Broncos NRL betting tips are confident in taking the Cowboys to win and cover the spread.

It should also be a high-scoring game, so include over 50.5 points in your NRL bets. It’s usually an exciting game between the Cowboys and Broncos, with 50 points being scored in their most recent meeting in March.

Bettors should expect the Cowboys to come away with an easy victory.
