Canterbury Bulldogs host Parramatta Eels in Round 14 of the 2026 NRL season at Accor Stadium on Monday. Read on for our full match preview, betting tips, and best odds.
Keen rivals Canterbury and Parramatta are running out of time to stay in the finals hunt. A win on Monday would come in very handy for either team.
FORM: The 4-8 Bulldogs have won only one of their last seven, following up a desperately needed 30-20 defeat of the Origin-depleted Storm with a frustrating 22-16 loss to the Tigers.
The 4-8 Eels have won only one of their last five, but they showed plenty of moxie in a 28-22 loss at Newcastle with Mitch Moses and Junior Paulo sidelined.
INS AND OUTS: No changes for either side, with Mitch Moses missing from the Parramatta line-up. Connor Tracey and Marcelo Montoya are listed in the Bulldogs’ reserves, while Ryley Smith is among the Eels’ reserves.
KEY MATCH-UP: Makeshift halfback Lachlan Galvin and stand-in No.7 Ronald Volkman need to take control for their teams on Monday.
HISTORY: The Eels carved out a stirring 38-20 upset in Round 7 to end a three-match losing run against the Bulldogs.
KEY STAT: Josh Addo-Carr has scored 23 tries from 29 games at Accor Stadium – but only two from his last 10 at the ground.
VERDICT: There’s always an extra edge to encounters between these clubs, regardless of where their respective formlines lie. It’s desperation stakes for both in terms of playing finals footy in 2026, so this should be a holiday Monday doozy.
The Eels can take confidence from their big win over the Bulldogs only seven weeks ago – and a plucky effort in Newcastle – but the absence of Moses renders this a difficult assignment.
Like they did against the depleted Storm, expect the Bulldogs to have the firepower required to pick off a bit of low-hanging fruit.
