Wests Tigers take on Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon at Accor Stadium, desperately hoping to end a four-game losing streak.
It’s been a tough couple of weeks for the Tigers against last season’s two best teams (Panthers and Broncos), and the Bulldogs are also a team that is up and about.
Prior to last weekend’s bye, the Bulldogs enjoyed victories at Accor Stadium over both the Roosters and Knights, and had a two-point loss to the Storm in Melbourne.

Coach Benji Marshall is sticking with the same team that lined up against the Broncos, a vote of confidence that this group can get the job done.
There is a distinct Panthers’ flavor to this game as well, with so many former Penrith teammates now lining up for both sides.
