Fremantle host Port this weekend with the Dockers having won six of their past seven and they boast a similar stat over their opponents this weekend, winning the last five matches in succession.
The Dockers average winning margin in those five games has been over 40 points and they’ll be giving Port 32.5 here.
Add to the mix that the Dockers have yet to taste defeat at home this year and the line looks within their reach.
Port has worked hard to secure three victories in the past month and in turn, hold on to eighth spot on the ladder however, in their last three matches against sides in the top eight, Hawthorn, Essendon and Geelong, they’ve finished on the wrong side of the ledger.
Port sit two wins ahead of Carlton – who take on the struggling Bombers this weekend – and the two sides meet in the final round of the season in a game that could possibly decide the last finals berth.
A win here will ensure that Port participates in September but against an in-form Dockers outfit, their season will go right down to the wire.
TIP: FREMANTLE 1 – 39
