Gold Coast Suns vs Essendon Bombers Preview
Gold Coast are fresh off a big win against Carlton and if they can upset Essendon then it would do wonders for the club as they head towards to end of season break.
Essendon are a win or two away from an unlikely finals birth though and with a pretty cosy fixture in the final two rounds they need to capitalise.
Would love to see the Suns throw a spanner in the works but I think Essendon will be a touch to good for them here.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Essendon Bombers to win at $1.30 odds.
