Penrith Panthers vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Prediction: Panther to bounce back from last loss

This National Rugby League match for round two will take place at BlueBet Stadium and pit the Penrith Panthers against the South Sydney Rabbitohs. The home team kicked off their season with a defeat, while the Rabbitohs got their season off to a strong start with a victory over the Cronulla Sharks.

The Penrith Panthers were dealt yet another loss this past weekend, this time at home against the Brisbane Broncos, when they were defeated by a score of 12-13. Penrith Panthers will aim to fare better in this match as they look to protect their title from the previous season since it will be their second consecutive loss. Their first loss was in the World Club Challenge Cup to St. Helens, and now they are looking to defend their crown. As a result, we are looking forward to seeing the powerful and high-quality Penrith Panthers team that we are familiar with from previous matches in this one.

The South Sydney Rabbitohs will enter this game with some momentum after claiming victory on the road against the Cronulla Sharks in their first game of the season. Because of their victory, the away team in the National Rugby League now has two points to their name, which places them in fourth place in the league's rankings. When taking into account their most recent five matches across all competitions, the South Sydney Rabbitohs currently have a record of three wins and two losses.

We anticipate a competitive contest, but the team playing at home should be able to pull out the victory. While comparing the two teams, it is evident that both have great players on their rosters, but it is abundantly clear that the Penrith Panthers are the superior team. Due to the fact that the Penrith Panthers played poorly the previous weekend, we anticipate a much improved performance from them this time around, and as a result, we anticipate that they will be able to win both halves of this match.
