It is another game week in the National Rugby League for the 2023 season. As we enter the 19th week of this season, the teams are set for another round of battles. Looking at the current standings, the Penrith Panthers sit at the top of the pile after playing only 16 games and, so far, gathering 26 points.
Even though this team still has eight more matches to be played, we can tell they can go all the way as they did in the 2022 season. Odds are high with Tigers vs Sharks betting. The Brisbane Broncos secured a win in their last game when they faced the Dolphins, and they sit behind Penrith on the log with the same points, but they have played 17 games.
The points between these teams are close, making it challenging to predict what the standings will look like after 24 games. As we enter the next round, we focus on the Wests Tigers and Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks as they battle for more points.
We don’t expect it to be a rollover for either team because a lot is at stake in this game. So, join us as we look at this matchup and provide a Tigers vs Sharks betting prediction.
