Two sides sitting at 3-5 open Round 10 of the NRL, with the Dolphins hosting the Bulldogs at Suncorp Stadium.
Dolphins vs Canterbury Bulldogs
Despite being level on the ladder, the form lines of these teams are trending in opposite directions.
The Dolphins have improved significantly over the past month, pushing Penrith and the Warriors before comfortably beating Melbourne last week.
Canterbury, meanwhile, have dropped three straight following their upset win over the Panthers.
Leg 1 - Dolphins 1-12
With Viliame Kikau and Jake Turpin sidelined, the Bulldogs look vulnerable again.
The Dolphins regain Kodi Nikorima and Jeremy Marshall-King, adding experience and stability.
Confidence is growing within this side and after beating Canterbury for the first time last season, they can edge another close one here.
Leg 2 - Jamayne Isaako to Score
Isaako has scored every time he has faced the Bulldogs as a Dolphin.
He’s also in strong form with three tries across the last two rounds.
Canterbury continue to concede tries down their right edge and with Kikau missing, that side looks even more exposed.
Leg 3 - Both Teams Over 12.5 Points
Both teams have scored 12 or more points in every game this season.
The 12.5 line has been cleared in 13 of the combined 16 matches involving these sides in 2026.
Even if the Dolphins control the match, Canterbury should still contribute enough points.

Dolphins 1-12 / Isaako to Score / Both Teams Over 12.5 Points = $6.00
Value Bet - Matt Burton to Score @ $3.75
With injuries mounting, Canterbury will rely heavily on Burton for attacking spark.
This is also his 100th appearance for the club, adding extra motivation.
He has three tries from eight games this season and continues to profile as a strong value scorer in this matchup.
