West Coast Eagles vs Fremantle Dockers Preview
What to make of West Coast? They’ve coming off a near 100-point loss to Geelong last week while Fremantle have the luxury of back to back games in Perth.
West Coast are no doubt the better of the two teams here and at Optus stadium I’ll back them every time.
Fremantle would love nothing more than to add a little more pain if they get the chance here though.
Market Update: Punters have really opened their wallets and come hard for Fremantle this week. The Dockers opened up at $2.50 and the influx of money has shortened them into $2.00 on the morning of the derby.
West Coast have clearly been unwanted and punters who like the Eagles can now get a great price. The market should be interesting to watch in the hours leading up to the game.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping West Coast Eagles to win at $1.80 odds.
First Goal Scorer
