Hawthorn Hawks vs Essendon Bombers Preview
Hawthorn had a really inspiring win against Sydney, in Sydney last week and would love nothing more than to back it up against arch rivals Essendon.
They will be boasted by the fact that this game has moved to UTAS Stadium, a venue the Bombers have never played at before.
Obviously this is a big challenge for the Hawks and I’d love to tip them but I’m not convinced they’re going to bring the same level of intensity as we saw last week.
Market Update: Hawthorn have attracted some good money this week and it’s seen them shorten significantly in the lead up to this game.
The Hawks opened at $2.46 and have since shortened into $2.29. Essendon remain the favourites at $1.63, out from $1.55.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Essendon Bombers to win at $1.63 odds.
