In the 2025 NRL season, the Wests Tigers find themselves in a precarious position, currently sitting just one win above the last-placed Titans and only a win outside the top eight.

Despite the recent additions of Jarome Luai, Sunia Turuva, and Terrell May, which have made the Tigers more competitive, they face a crucial match against the high-flying Raiders.

A loss could put the Tigers in a vulnerable spot, especially with three challenging away games against the Sea Eagles, Roosters, and Warriors looming.

On the other hand, the Raiders come off their first bye of the season and are well-positioned to solidify their place in the top four.
