South Sydney Rabbitohs vs The Dolphins Prediction – Round 11 2026

13/05/2026|SB Staff|NRL Expert Predictions & Tips

For the second time already this season, the South Sydney Rabbitohs and Dolphins will do battle at Suncorp Stadium. 

It was a points fest back in Round 1 with the Bunnies prevailing 40-30, but the Dolphins enter this contest on a two-game winning streak. 

The Dolphins dismantled the Bulldogs last Thursday, winning 44-12, but look to be facing a far tougher challenge in the top-four-placed Rabbitohs this week. 

Wayne Bennett’s men have scored 30+ points in each of their last six games and will have their superstar Latrell Mitchell back on deck after he missed the 36-12 win over the Sharks. 

The competition’s all-time leading try scorer, Alex Johnston, will miss the contest due to a knee injury, paving the way for Bayleigh Bentley-Hape to play his first game of the season. Meanwhile, it’s an unchanged starting lineup for the Dolphins.

For the latest news, odds and analysis ahead of this Friday night fiesta, check out our Rabbitohs vs Dolphins tips and predictions below.

 

Rabbitohs vs Dolphins Prediction and Betting Tips 

 

Head-to-Head Prediction 

We’re expecting plenty of points in what should be a magical Round 11 encounter when two of the competition’s top attacking teams duke it out on Friday night.

The Dolphins and the Rabbitohs scored 80 points between them last week, as they both ran out big winners in their respective matches.

As the Dolphins dined out on the Dogs, Jamayne Isaako managed to cross for a hat-trick, while the game’s greatest try scorer Alex Johnston did likewise, in his side’s win over the Sharks. 

This sets up a tantalising shootout between these two sides that is a tough one to predict, but we’ll be taking the Bunnies in the H2H betting, as their win last week was without Latrell Mitchell, who is slated to return this week.

Betting tip: South Sydney Rabbitohs

 

First Try Scorer Prediction 

With Alex Johnston ruled out of this one, our choice becomes a whole lot easier for this market.

Jamayne Isaako has scored two or more tries in two of the Dolphins' last three matches and with a hit rate like that presents good value to be the opening try scorer here.

Betting tip: Jamayne Isaako.

 

Over/Under Prediction 

Six of South Sydney's last seven interstate matches have gone over the total match points line.

Betting tip: Over (54.5) total match points

 

Line Prediction

The Dolphins have covered the line in each of their last four matches.

Betting tip: Dolphins (-1.5) line
