West Coast Eagles vs Adelaide Crows Preview
West Coast Eagles bounced back with a win over Hawthorn last week and should be able to take another scalp when they host the Adelaide Crows at Optus Stadium.
After a strong start to the season the Crows have dipped and look to be headed for a bottom 4 finish again this season.
Their best footy could give the Eagles a run for their money but I can’t see them upsetting them at home. Eagles to win this.
Market Update: There’s been no love for the Crows in this one. They’re out to $8.60 in betting after opening at $8.00.
The Eagles are at near unbackable odds but they continue to shorten. they’re into $1.07 after touching $1.10 during the week.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping West Coast Eagles to win at $1.07 odds.
First Goal Scorer
First Goal Scorer: Jack Darling at $8.00.
