AFL Expert Tips Round 24

 

Essendon Bombers vs Collingwood Magpies

Date: Friday, August 25, 2023

Time: 7:50 PM @ MCG

Collingwood’s track record against Essendon is strong, having won each of the last three matches by a margin of 1-39 points. Essendon’s recent humiliating loss to GWS marks a low point, and their performance has been inconsistent at best.

On the other hand, Collingwood’s determination to secure the minor premiership, coupled with their ability to overturn significant deficits, as seen in the ANZAC Day classic, makes them the favourites.

With the favourite having won each of Essendon’s last nine matches, and considering Collingwood’s recent night match scoring trends, the prediction leans towards a Collingwood victory. The final score should be Collingwood beating Essendon 91-74.

Betting Tip: Collingwood

Suggested Bet: Magpies by 1-39 @ $2.20

 

Hawthorns Hawks vs Fremantle Dockers

Date: Saturday, August 26, 2023

Time: 1:45 PM @ MCG

Hawthorn and Fremantle will face off at the MCG, both looking to end the 2023 season on a high note. Despite Hawthorn’s youth movement and Fremantle’s recent struggles, the Dockers have won their last five matches against the Hawks.

However, Fremantle’s consistent loss in the first quarter in away matches may be a sign of weakness. Hawthorn, eager to snap a five-match losing streak against the Dockers, has the determination to tip the scales in their favour.

Considering recent trends and both teams’ motivations, the prediction leans towards a close Hawthorn victory, beating Fremantle 80-76.

Betting Tip: Hawthorn

Suggested Bet: Hawks by 1-39 @ $2.15

 

North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Gold Coast Suns

Date: Saturday, August 26, 2023

Time: 1:45 PM @ Blundstone Arena

Betting Tip: Gold Coast

North Melbourne’s recent form has been dismal, with a 20th straight loss, while Gold Coast has a strong record against the Kangaroos, winning three straight by an average margin of 57.3 points.

The Suns’ key players, such as Noah Anderson and Ben King, have been instrumental in their past victories, and their performance in the last meeting, where they won 97-54, demonstrates their dominance. Despite a recent home loss to Carlton, Gold Coast’s overall performance and match betting odds of 1.35 indicate a strong likelihood of success.

Considering North Melbourne’s struggles and Gold Coast’s recent triumphs over them, the final score should realistically be in favour of Gold Coast, beating North Melbourne 97-67. The Suns’ ability to maintain leads and their consistent performance against the Kangaroos make them the clear favourites in this match.

Suggested Bet: Suns LINE (-19.5) @ $1.90

 

Brisbane Lions vs St Kilda Saints

Date: Saturday, August 26, 2023

Time: 4:35 PM @ Gabba

The Lions are coming off a significant win against ladder-leading Collingwood, with standout performances from Lachie Neale and Charlie Cameron. Their 10-0 record at the Gabba this season, coupled with their 11 consecutive wins at the venue, makes them formidable opponents on their home turf.

St Kilda, although securing an impactful win over Geelong, will have to overcome Brisbane’s strong home advantage. The Saints’ recent performance, led by Jack Sinclair and Brad Crouch, has been commendable, but Brisbane’s previous 84-56 victory over St Kilda in Round 15 showcases their dominance.

Taking into account Brisbane’s impressive home record and their failure to cover the line in six of their last seven matches, the final score should favour Brisbane, defeating St Kilda by a margin of 90-60.

The Lions’ consistent performance, especially in the third quarter, where they have been the highest-scoring in their last four matches, adds to their advantage. Brisbane’s match betting odds of 1.22 further solidify their position as favourites in this encounter.

Betting Tip: Brisbane

Suggested Bet: Lions by 1-39 @ $2.15

 

Geelong Cats vs Western Bulldogs

Date: Saturday, August 26, 2023

Time: 7:25 PM @ GMHBA Stadium

Despite the Bulldogs’ Marcus Bontempelli’s herculean efforts in their recent loss to West Coast, the Cats’ home advantage cannot be overlooked. Geelong has won each of its last 16 home matches against the Western Bulldogs, and their match betting odds of 1.85 reflect this dominance.

The Cats’ recent performance has been strong, covering the line in eight of their last nine night matches at GMHBA Stadium. Additionally, they have won the first quarter in each of their last 10 matches at this venue, and the highest scoring quarter has been the first in their last five night matches.

Though the Bulldogs are still in the hunt for September, Geelong’s consistent performance against them, winning each of their last five matches by a margin of 1-39 points, adds to the Cats’ advantage. Considering these factors, the final score should favour Geelong, narrowly defeating the Western Bulldogs 85-80.

The Cats’ ability to maintain leads and their consistent performance against the Bulldogs make them the favourites in this tightly contested match.

Betting Tip: Geelong

Suggested Bet: Cats by 1-39 @ $2.35

 

West Coast Eagles vs Adelaide Crows

Date: Saturday, August 26, 2023

Time: 8:10 PM @ Optus Stadium

Despite a controversial loss to Sydney last weekend, Adelaide’s previous performance against West Coast, a 174-52 triumph in Round 13, demonstrates their capability to dominate the Eagles.

West Coast’s recent form has been shaky, losing nine of their last 10 matches at Optus Stadium. Although they managed an upset victory over the Western Bulldogs, the Eagles’ overall performance at home does not inspire confidence. Adelaide’s match betting odds of 1.17 further emphasize their strong position.

Taylor Walker’s career-best 10-goal haul in the previous encounter with West Coast is a testament to Adelaide’s firepower. While the Eagles will be motivated to farewell several premiership stars with a strong effort, the Crows’ determination and recent form should see them prevail.

Considering these factors, the final score should favour Adelaide, beating West Coast convincingly with a score of 118-64.

Betting Tip: Adelaide

Suggested Bet: Crows LINE (-34.5) @ $1.90

 

Port Adelaide Power vs Richmond Tigers

Date: Sunday, August 27, 2023

Time: 12:30 PM @ Adelaide Oval

Port Adelaide’s impressive record of winning 19 of its last 20 day matches at the Adelaide Oval speaks volumes about their dominance at home. Their match betting odds of 1.13 further solidify their position as favourites.

Richmond’s recent form has been concerning, failing to cover the line in each of their last six matches and losing each of their last four matches against top-eight opponents by a margin of 25+ points. This trend does not bode well for them against a strong Port Adelaide side.

Considering Port Adelaide’s consistent performance, especially in their last five home matches where the total match points have gone OVER the line, the final score should favour Port Adelaide, beating Richmond 111-77. Port Adelaide’s ability to maintain leads, their consistent performance at home, and Richmond’s struggles against top-tier teams make Port Adelaide the clear favourites in this match.

Betting Tip: Port Adelaide

Suggested Bet: Power by 1-39 @ $2.35

 

Sydney Swans vs Melbourne Demons

Date: Sunday, August 27, 2023

Time: 3:20 PM @ SCG

Sydney’s recent form has been exceptional, winning each of their last six matches, and their match betting odds of 1.80 reflect this strong position.

Melbourne, on the other hand, has struggled in recent interstate matches, failing to cover the line in each of their last five. This trend, coupled with Sydney’s consistent performance in day matches where the total match points have gone OVER the line, adds to the Swans’ advantage.

Sydney’s ability to maintain leads, as evidenced by their last six wins by a margin of 1-39 points, and their tendency to score higher in the first half, further solidify their position as favourites in this encounter.

Considering these factors, the final score should favour Sydney, narrowly defeating Melbourne 88-79.

Betting Tip: Sydney

Suggested Bet: Swans by 1-39 @ $2.30

 

Carlton Blues vs GWS Giants

Date: Sunday, August 27, 2023

Time: 6:10 PM @ Marvel Stadium

Carlton’s recent form has been outstanding, winning each of their last nine matches, and their match betting odds of 1.48 reflect this dominance.

The Giants, on the other hand, have struggled in recent night matches, losing the first quarter in each of their last eight. Additionally, each of GWS’s last five matches at Marvel Stadium have gone UNDER the total match points line, aligning with the trend of total points being under 166.5.

Carlton’s ability to cover the line in each of their last four matches against GWS, combined with their consistent performance and strong form, further solidifies their position as favourites in this encounter.

Considering these factors, the final score should favour Carlton, defeating the Giants 91-68.

Betting Tip: Carlton

Suggested Bet: Blues by 1-39 @ $2.10
