Carlton Blues vs North Melborune Kangaroos Odds
Carlton Blues vs North Melborune Kangaroos Preview
Carlton’s recent form has dipped since their impressive first quarter against the Giants, struggling to maintain their previously elite pressure around the contest. They’ll face North Melbourne, who were overwhelmed by the Swans last week.
For Carlton to bounce back, they must leverage their multiple goal-scoring threats, unlike their recent narrow approach. Their ball movement and centre stoppage defence need improvement, as seen against the Dogs.
In their last meeting, Carlton dominated North Melbourne, but the Roos have shown improvement since. Carlton’s midfield balance and form will be key, as North’s bottom-end contributions have been inconsistent. On paper, Carlton should win, but with their recent form, it might be closer than expected.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Carlton Blues to win at $1.13 odds.
First Goal Scorer
