<p>The Origin news surrounding this clash is equal parts who got picked and equal parts who didn’t. Mitchell Moses has won the race for the Blues No.6 shirt ahead of incumbent Jarome Luai, while former Cockroach hero, Tom Trbojevic, finds himself on the Origin outer for the first time in his career.</p> <p>That means not only will Turbo be available for this game, but he’ll be out to prove a point. Parramatta defenders, you have been warned.</p> <p>The Eels will be aiming to win consecutive games for the first time this year, as they desperately try and salvage something from season 2025.</p> <p>No Moses or Lomax will make their task a lot harder than it needs to be, but the form of departing star Dylan Brown has been a welcome sight for the Parra faithful and those at Newcastle who sanctioned his $10 million move to the Hunter Valley.</p> <p>The Kiwi international has four tries in his last four matches and will need to lead from the front here once again if his side want any hope of overcoming the Sea Eagles who are coming off an impressive away win over the Cowboys last start.</p> <p>Let’s take a look at how these two sides might line up for this clash, as well as some betting tips for the H2H, first try scorer, and over/under markets. This is our Eels vs Sea Eagles prediction.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Eels vs Sea Eagles Predicted Teams</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Parramatta Eels Predicted Team List</h3> <p>1. Isaiah Iongi</p> <p>2.

<h2>Eels vs Sea Eagles Prediction and Betting Tips</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Head-to-Head Prediction</h3> <p>The Eels will go looking for back-to-back wins for the first time this season when they welcome old foes Manly to CommBank Stadium in NRL round 12.</p> <p>They’ll have to do it without star half Mitchell Moses who has earned a recall for NSW at the expense of Jarome Luai, after leading the Blues to a famous series win last year.</p> <p>We had plenty of opportunities to see how the Eels fare without main man Moses, while he was out injured over the opening six rounds.</p> <p>They won just once during that time, and we have little hope for them against a Sea Eagles side who for the first time in what seems like forever will still have the services of the aforementioned Tom Trbojevic during this period.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/rugby-league/nrl/parramatta-eels-v-manly-sea-eagles-9224362">Manly Sea Eagles.</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>First Try Scorer Prediction</h3> <p>Can anyone else see Tommy tearing away up the middle and going in under the posts early in this one?</p> <p>What about NSW coach Laurie Daley wincing and watching through his fingers as he does?</p> <p>It would be quite the story, and Turbo has proved time and time again throughout his illustrious career he is an elite headline writer.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/rugby-league/nrl/parramatta-eels-v-manly-sea-eagles-9224362">Tom Trbojevic first try scorer.</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Over/Under Prediction</h3> <p>With Moses and Lomax off on Origin duty, we don’t hold out much hope of Parra piling on the points here.</p> <p>So, unless the Sea Eagles go absolutely crazy, we have our doubts about the total match points line being eclipsed. Particularly when you consider Manly’s main man and playmaker Daly Cherry Evans will also be away on rep duty.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/rugby-league/nrl/parramatta-eels-v-manly-sea-eagles-9224362">Under total match points.</a></p>
