The Brisbane Broncos, having suffered consecutive losses in the previous weeks, will attempt to regain their footing when they travel to face South Sydney Rabbitohs at Accor Stadium on Friday, June 14, in the NRL Round 15.

The Broncos lost to the Gold Coast Titans in Round 12 and to the Cronulla Sharks in Round 14. In both games, they gave up an eight-point first-half lead, marking their first back-to-back losses this season.

The 2023 Grand Finalists are currently in eighth place and are struggling to move up the ladder due to recent results. Brisbane aim to end their losing streak at the venue where they lost the 2023 Grand Final.

The home team, South Sydney, has been in good form compared to their opponents. The Rabbitohs have won their last two games, each coming on either side of a bye. They won against Parramatta Eels in Round 12 and had a big 46-12 victory over the Gold Coast Titans in Round 14.

Despite their recent resurgence, the Rabbitohs are still down near the bottom of the ladder in 16th position. A third consecutive win could further lift them out of the NRL cellar. They will be bolstered by the return of captain Cameron Murray, who had been sidelined with a hip injury since Round 9.

South Sydney will rely on fullback Latrell Mitchell, who has scored 48 points in his last four games, to deliver once again. While the Broncos have won four of the last five games against the Rabbitohs, the Rabbitohs are currently on an upward trajectory and are likely to continue in such fashion with a win.
