Panthers vs Eels NRL 2020, Round 18

September 11 at 7.55pm – Panthers Stadium – Penrith

Pundits & fans alike are much impressed with the season the Penrith Panthers have put together. The betting odds with the online betting sites for the match with the Eels have the Panthers heavily favoured to take the win.

However, one has the feeling that the Panthers almost ‘need’ a loss before the finals as a mental refresher and motivator and it could come here against the Eels who have freshened up themselves and will be well prepared for the battle.

Overall Match Prediction

Penrith are the form team of the competition, however, to stay at the top for long periods of time, teams occasionally need a loss to reinforce where they are at and freshen up mentally.

The Eels will arrive at Panthers Stadium knowing that the Panthers are due for a loss, and knowing they have the type of game to upset Panthers as they did earlier in the season.
