West Coast Eagles vs North Melbourne Odds
West Coast Eagles vs North Melbourne Preview
Last year’s clash determined the top draft pick, won by North Melbourne. This year, they’re likely to secure it unless they crumble. Missing Harley Reid, North’s midfielders must step up physically. West Coast showed promise against St. Kilda but struggled under pressure. North should focus on transition and avoiding long bombs to Nick Larkey. Both teams rank low in tackles, suggesting the contest may hinge on pressure acts. North’s accuracy is a strength, but the Eagles will aim to exploit their inconsistency.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping West Coast Eagles to win at $1.28 odds.
First Goal Scorer
First Goal Scorer: Nick Larkey at $9.00.
