Carlton Blues vs St Kilda Saints Preview
Carlton will take on St Kilda at Marvel Stadium on Friday night and it’s a significant game for both clubs.
Carlton recorded a big win over Fremantle last week but they’ll need to continue their midfield dominance if they’re to beat St Kilda.
The Saints are in a world of pain having lost their last 3 games and their season is slipping away fast.
It’s pretty clear that Carlton need to win the midfield battle here. If they don’t the Saints are a big chance given the Blues depleted backline.
That said I think the Blues will be too strong for the Saints who look lost at the moment.
Betting Update:
Carlton hold a firm grip over this market but there has been money for both sides this week.
St Kilda’s recent performances have clearly left punters wary of backing them. The Saints are at $2.40 with Ladbrokes.
Carlton have been favourites since markets opened and currently sit at $1.57.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Carlton Blues to win at $1.57 odds.
