Brisbane vs. Sydney Predictions
—
Best Bet
We expected Brisbane to bounce back from a loss with a win over Collingwood, and they didn’t disappoint with a 92-65 win.
It was a great bounce back effort following a heavy loss to Gold Coast, and although Sydney is playing well with four wins from its last five games, Brisbane is a much better team, and it’s also seeking a minor premiership win.
Their earlier meeting against Sydney in March was only a four-point win, but Brisbane has improved since then, and Sydney only defeated Essendon last week by 14 points, which isn’t a good form guide.

Same Game Multi
They combined for 168 points earlier this year, but we expect Sydney to score a much lower total. The final score will likely be around 90-62, so we’re including the over in our AFL Round 22 same game multi picks.
Logan Morris was excellent against Collingwood, scoring six goals against a tough defensive team, so he should be licking his lips at the prospect of playing Sydney. He’s a $2.30 chance to score 3+ goals, which boosts payouts handsomely.
Cam Rayner has five goals in his last two games, including two last week, and that’s a good form guide. He is growing in confidence, and although Brisbane likes to share its goal scorer duties, he should have a 2+ goal performance.

Best Value Bet
Brisbane has every chance of scoring a blowout victory, and there is enough value with the $2.45 odds for punters to snap up.
The Lions know how important this game is for their run to the finals, and not performing well against Sydney isn’t an option for the home side.
It should be a comfortable victory, so take the risk and back Brisbane 40+.
