Canterbury Bulldogs vs Manly Sea Eagles Prediction – Round 21 2025
24/07/2025|Joel Caine|NRL Expert Predictions & Tips<p>In the final game of NRL round 21, The Canterbury Bulldogs come up against their bogey team at Allianz Stadium – The Manly Sea Eagles.</p>
<p>The Doggies have won just one of their past 12 against the Manly Anthony Seibold’s men and will have extra motivation as they attempt to get back at them for their elimination from the first week of last year’s finals series.</p>
<p>More recently, a piece of Lachlan Galvin magic helped the Bulldogs steal victory from the Dragons last weekend to move them back into second spot on the ladder, while Manly produced arguably its best performance of the season, upsetting Melbourne 18-16 at AAMI Park.</p>
<p>Match-winner Jethro Rinakama somewhat cruelly makes way as Bronson Xerri returns for the Bulldogs. Sam Hughes comes into the side to fill the gap left by Sitili Tupouniua, who has injured his hamstring.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Tommy Talau drops out of the Manly 17 to accommodate the return of Haumole Olakau’atu, who bolsters the pack after six weeks sidelined with injury.</p>

<h2>Bulldogs vs Sea Eagles Prediction and Betting Tips</h2>
<p> </p>
<h3>Head-to-Head Prediction</h3>
<p>The last game of the round should be one of the closest as the Bulldogs welcome the Sea Eagles to Allianz Stadium on Sunday afternoon.</p>
<p>Both of these sides recorded stunning victories last week, both by a margin of two points, meaning we should be in for an absolute corker here.</p>
<p>The Sea Eagles ambushed the Storm down in Melbourne, while new Bulldogs recruit silenced his critics with a match winning display that included a try and a game-stealing assist.</p>
<p>If young gun Galvin continues this kind of form, it could be enough to not only catapult the Doggies to victory here, but also their first minor premiership since 2012.</p>
<p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> Canterbury Bulldogs.</p>
<p> </p>
