Following a narrow defeat to the Storm in Round 21, the Roosters have surged, accumulating 116 points from victories over the Sea Eagles, Dolphins, and Bulldogs, revitalizing their quest for a finals spot.
With James Tedesco and Sam Walker in fine form, the Roosters have positioned themselves to potentially qualify for the finals for the ninth consecutive year, a possibility that seemed unlikely when they were languishing in 10th place after the loss to Melbourne.
To maintain their momentum, the Roosters must remain vigilant against an unpredictable Eels team that can unleash high-scoring performances and breach any defense.
Key to Parramatta's prospects is star halfback Mitch Moses. If he can refine his long kicking game and deliver precise passes to Zac Lomax in the Red Zone, the Eels have the potential to cause an upset.
