West Coast Eagles vs Brisbane Lions Preview
Brisbane will look to continue its late-season charge when it travels west to face an Eagles side searching for positives in a difficult campaign. The reigning premiers produced one of their best performances of the year in last week’s convincing win over Essendon, keeping their hopes of a top-two finish firmly alive. West Coast, meanwhile, has struggled to maintain the competitiveness it showed earlier in the season.
The Lions boast one of the competition’s deepest lists, with role players continuing to complement stars Lachie Neale and Will Ashcroft as Brisbane builds towards another finals campaign. Oscar Allen could provide an intriguing storyline if he returns to face his former club, but the Eagles face a significant challenge regardless. Brisbane’s ability to dominate contested possession and punish turnovers makes it a difficult opponent for a developing West Coast outfit.
Head To Head Bet
