Brisbane Lions vs Melbourne Demons Preview
What a game to kick off the final round of the home and away season.
Brisbane are definitely a tough team to beat at home but I’m a little surprised to see them open as favourites this week.
They’ve failed most of their big tests this season and it doesn’t give me a lot of confidence that they’ll pass this final test against Melbourne.
When these two teams met earlier this year Melbourne demolished the Lions.
$1.96 seems like a great price for the Dees and I’m happy to get on.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Melbourne Demons to win at $2.05 odds.
First Goal Scorer
First Goal Scorer: Bayley Fritsch at $9.00.
