NRL games today – upcoming matches in NRL playoffs
Contents
This weekend’s round of NRL action sees the third set of playoff matches go down on Friday and Saturday. With plenty on the line in the NRL games today as the Grand Final teams will be decided this weekend, let’s take a look at the NRL schedule for this week:
- Friday, 11:50 GMT – Penrith Panthers vs Melbourne Storm
- Saturday, 11:50 GMT – Brisbane Broncos vs New Zealand Warriors
With two crucial NRL matches taking place this weekend, there will be plenty of NRL matches today for punters to enjoy betting on.
Best NRL game tonight
Trying to decide which NRL games today are worth watching? That’s a tough one, considering how evenly matched both of this weekend’s preliminary finals are.
Last time the Penrith Panthers and Melbourne Storm met at this stage of the season was two years ago, where the Panthers gritted out a tight 10-6 victory to book their spot in the Grand Final. With Melbourne being as mercurial as it gets the last few weeks (winning against the Broncos, then losing 26-0 the next week), the big question is which Storm side will show up in Penrith? If the side that has made the Grand Final four times in the past seven years, lifting the trophy twice, then we can expect a cracking contest in the NRL tonight.
The Warriors will also be looking to put in a big performance, as they face a tough task heading to Brisbane to take on an impressive Broncos team. The New Zealanders were back to their best last weekend against the Newcastle Knights, and if they bring the same level at Suncorp, could well upset the No 2 side this season.
