Newcastle Knights vs Canberra Raiders Preview

The Green Machine is back in full swing as they look to extend their winning streak to four on Saturday night against a desperate Knights team.

Canberra’s defensive effort was huge last week in their two-point win over Parramatta, a performance Ricky Stuart will be hoping his side can build on with a few big games coming up against the Storm, Manly and the Roosters.

Newcastle remains in the hunt for the eight, but recent efforts have certainly left a lot to be desired.

The Knights copped a walloping last week at the hands of the Roosters, but all is not lost as Newcastle prepares to potentially welcome back Bradman Best, David Klemmer and Mitchell Pearce from injury this week.

On the injury front, the Raiders could also be bolstered by the return of Elliott Whitehead and Jack Wighton, adding some spice to an intriguing matchup between 9th and 11^th.

The Knights have won their last two games over the Raiders, but the way Canberra has been playing defensively over the last three weeks is tough to ignore.

The Raiders have held their last three opponents to under 20 points, which doesn’t read well for a Knights team that ranks second-last in points scored.

With a chance to jump back in the eight, the Raiders look a good bet to win a low-scoring contest.
