Wests Tigers will head to the nation's capital this Saturday determined to their finals hopes alive as they take on Canberra Raiders at GIO Stadium for their Round 18 clash.
After a last start defeat to the Parramatta Eels saw Wests Tigers slip to 11th on the ladder and two points outside the top eight, Michael Maguire's side will be determined to bounce back against a Raiders side flying high in the top four.
Since beating Wests Tigers 28-0 when they met back in Round 13, Canberra have lost just once — a game they lost despite leading 16-0 in Darwin — and will have their eyes set on continuing their good home form against Wests Tigers this week.
