It’s only Round 2 of the NRL but tonight’s clash between Brisbane and the Warriors already looms as a vital clash for the visitors following last week’s disastrous season opening loss to Wests Tigers. Despite a second half fightback that saw them close the gap to two, the 28-4 half-time scoreline showed that the New Zealand side still has a long way to go in 2016 to compete with the best and with Brisbane the early competition favorites, the Warriors look to be in for a long night.
A shortened night of Premier League action on Saturday provides Manchester City with a huge opportunity to make up some ground on the leaders when they travel to Norwich. City have struggled domestically over the past month but a 4-0 win over Aston Villa last start was a great confidence boost an with Sergio Agüero fit and firing they have the firepower to make a statement in this one.
Finally we’re off to the NBA on Sunday we’re LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers face off in a fascinating contest against the in-form LA Clippers. The Cavs have had the best of this match-up in recent times and scored a 115-102 win in January, however the Clippers have impressed over the past month and defensive powerhouse DeAndre Jordan will no doubt be keen to make a statement against “The King.”
