Leeds Rhinos vs London Broncos Prediction: Broncos to suffer another heavy defeat

Emerald Headingley Stadium will host the Betfred Super League game between Leeds Rhinos and London Broncos. The hosts come in as favorites here, while the road team is the underdog. Below, we will look into the two teams and provide betting opportunities.

Leeds Rhinos

Leeds Rhinos were brilliant the previous weekend, ending their back-to-back losses against Hull FC. Leeds Rhinos won 12-18 in that game, taking a 6-12 lead at halftime, while they settled for a 6-6 draw in the second half. In the prior games to that win, Leeds Rhinos lost four out of five, with their lone win coming against Castleford. In other games, this side lost to St Helens in consecutive games, while Huddersfield and Warrington Wolves also defeated them. While they come in as favorites in this game, Leeds Rhinos will hope they can replicate their previous week's performance and lead themselves to another league win.

London Broncos

The London Broncos struggled last weekend on the road against Castleford, losing 40. In the first half of that game, London Broncos conceded 30 goals and could not eventually respond in the second half, as they conceded 10. In the meantime, the London Broncos remain the only side yet to win a game this season after nine games. In that run, London Broncos lost to Catalans Dragons, Hull FC, Wigan Warriors, Warrington Wolves, Huddersfield, Hull KR, Salford Red Devils and St Helens. In those matches, London Broncos scored just 74 goals while conceding 348, averaging the worst record in the league this season.

Expert Betting Tips

At the moment, it is hard to see a side London Broncos can conveniently compete against, and they come in from the road here. Leeds Rhinos have not been playing their best rugby this season, and they will need to do even better here. The London Broncos are the worst side in defense, and they have a weak offense. Regardless of how inconsistent Leeds Rhinos are, the visiting Broncos are not competitive, and the hosts should rally to an easy win in this one.
