Western Bulldogs vs Essendon Bombers Preview
Western Bulldogs and the Essendon Bombers will go head to head at Marvel Stadium on Sunday and it looks like a very important game for both teams.
The Bulldogs were very disappointing losing to Adelaide in Ballarat last round.
Essendon are yet to play against Collingwood at the time of writing this so the odds for this game could change dramatically depending on that result.
I’d be reluctant betting on either side given their current form. The Bulldogs should win but at $1.38 – leave me out.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Western Bulldogs to win at $1.38 odds.
First Goal Scorer
