The Parramatta Eels and the Canberra Raiders get it on in the humidity of Darwin. Join The Roar from 7:35pm (AEST) for live scores and all the action.

Canberra going into the game in fine form and sitting in fourth place on the NRL ladder.

The Raiders have been one of the success stories so far in 2019 and are coming off a thrilling 22-20 win over the Sharks.

They have won their last three games in a row and will be confident in the Northern Territory.

In contrast, who knows which Parramatta will turn up. The team that put 38 points on the Broncos last weekend, or the one that shipped 42 points against Cronulla the week before?

The Eels have been horribly inconsistent this season and suffered some bad lapses. They are in ninth spot on the table but have yet to really convince.

Though with just one player involved in State of Origin – Blake Ferguson – they should be fairly rested after the weekend off.

The last time these two teams met, in round five, it was an easy 19-0 win for Canberra.

The Raiders have been boosted by the return of hooker Josh Hodgson. The Englishman is a focal point of Canberra’ attack and is a massive in for the Green Machine.

The Eels have Dylan Brown returning from injury, replacing Jaemon Salmon who is benched. But they will be without centre Michael Jennings.

Prediction
Canberra are tough to beat and have a gritty core that keeps them in games. Their English contingent has really impressed and continue to lead the way.

Raiders to win by eight points.
