Western Bulldogs vs St Kilda Saints Preview
Plenty on the line in this game with both teams needing to win to keep their finals hopes alive.
The Western Bulldogs have been extremely disappointing of late and were far from competitive in recent games against Sydney and the Brisbane Lions.
St Kilda aren’t much better. Aside from a good win over Carlton their last 5 weeks of footy have been awful and were well beaten by Fremantle last round.
The Bulldogs will be boasted by the return of some key players. I’ll back them here but I’m happy to stay out of this game.
Betting Update:
Good betting game here with both teams being supported this week but the Western Bulldogs have had the majority of support.
The Bulldogs got out to $2.00 early in betting but since then they’ve been backed in and are now the clear favourites at $1.62.
St Kilda still have support but they’ve drifted out to $2.30 after touching $1.82 early.
