NEC Nijmegen enters as the strong favorite against struggling Fortuna Sittard, with NEC unbeaten and leading the Eredivisie early in the season. Fortuna has underperformed, holding only 1 point from 3 matches, while NEC boasts a perfect record and dominant goal difference.
Key Factors to Consider
NEC Nijmegen is top of the league with 9 points from 3 wins and a goal difference of +11 (12 scored, 1 conceded). Fortuna Sittard has just 1 point from 3 matches and sits 14th in the table, showing fragile defense but some attacking potential.

No significant injury news found for either team; both likely to field strong lineups.
Home advantage for Fortuna Sittard could offer some resistance but is insufficient against NEC's current form and confidence.

The Dolphins host the Gold Coast Titans in an NRL Round 26 matchup at Suncorp Stadium. Both teams have struggled recently, with the Dolphins on a three-game losing streak and the Titans on four consecutive losses. The Dolphins still hold a historical advantage in this derby, with 4 wins in 5 encounters. The game is crucial for the Dolphins to keep finals hopes alive while the Titans fight to avoid the wooden spoon.
Key Factors to Consider
The Dolphins have lost their last three matches, including a heavy 58-30 loss to Manly, but they have a potent offense led by Jamayne Isaako (246 points) and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow (17 tries in last 11 home games). The Titans have conceded 82 points in their last two games at Suncorp and have lost four straight, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities.
Dolphins dominate the recent derby series 4-1. The last meeting was a decisive 36-10 win for Dolphins. Titans winger Phillip Sami has scored four tries vs Dolphins in recent clashes but Titans overall reliability in this matchup is low.
No major injury news significantly impacting starting lineups reported. Dolphins hooker Jeremy Marshall-King is set to make his 150th appearance and remains a key attacking threat.
Playing at home at Suncorp Stadium grants the Dolphins slight environmental advantage. No severe weather or other external conditions noted that would alter game dynamics significantly.
Dolphins have must-win motivation to stay in finals race; Titans motivation centers on escaping last place, potentially affecting defensive focus and risk-taking.

The Cronulla Sutherland Sharks host the Newcastle Knights in Round 26 of the 2025 NRL season, with the Sharks clear favourites due to strong recent form and home advantage, while the Knights continue to struggle with a seven-game losing streak.
Key Factors to Consider
Cronulla Sharks have won five of their last six games, recently thrashing the Titans 54-22. Newcastle Knights are on a seven-game losing streak and have conceded 176 points in their last four matches.
Sharks have dominated recent matchups, winning five of their last six encounters and most recently beating Newcastle 34-14 in April 2025.
Cronulla welcome back KL Iro and add Braden Hamlin-Uele to the bench after Cameron McInnes suffered a season-ending injury. Newcastle have no significant changes to their lineup despite poor form.
The Sharks benefit from playing at home (Shark Park) with a strong crowd presence. Newcastle face internal turmoil with coach Adam O’Brien reportedly under pressure.
Cronulla are motivated to maintain momentum and secure a top-four finish ahead of the finals. Newcastle lack confidence and are under pressure due to their poor form and coaching instability.

The Utah Utes and UCLA Bruins open their 2025 NCAA football seasons at the historic Rose Bowl. Both teams finished 5-7 last season without bowl appearances, but Utah enters as a moderate favorite with a -5.5 spread. Utah’s defense is notably stronger, ranked 25th nationally last year, while UCLA struggles offensively and defensively comparatively.
Key Factors to Consider
Utah (5-7 last year) showed better defensive metrics with 20.7 points allowed per game, while UCLA struggled offensively with just 18.4 points per game and gave up 25.3 points on defense. Utah added impactful offensive players including OC Jason Beck and AB Devon Dampier, boosting their rush game. UCLA’s QB pressures result in high sack rates, facing a stout Utah 4-2-5 defense.
Historically, Utah is a slight favorite with consistent defensive edge in recent matchups, including strong performance against UCLA defenses. UCLA has covered spreads well as underdog previously, but Utah’s superior defense and improvements position them favorably this time.
No significant injury reports currently affecting Utah or UCLA key starters, providing both teams full strength squads for kickoff.
Game played in Pasadena with expected 79°F and calm conditions favoring neither team distinctly. Utah travels but motivation to rebound from last season’s record combined with new offensive additions is notable.
Both teams aim to start strong after disappointing prior season records. Utah, with new offensive weapons, is motivated to prove growth, while UCLA seeks to overcome offensive struggles against a top Utah defense.
