Essendon Bombers vs Gold Coast Suns Preview
Essendon are in form at the moment having win their last two games but it doesn’t get any easier for them this week, they take on the Gold Coast Suns who are also playing great footy.
Gold Coast were dead and buried against Richmond last week but pulled off a miraculous win which included a goal after the siren.
Essendon beat Brisbane but given the Lions were forced to make 9 changes to their side it was far from impressive.
Gold Coast still have plenty to play for so I’m tipping them to win here.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Gold Coast Suns to win at $1.87 odds.
