Hawthorn vs. West Coast Predictions

Best Bet

Hawthorn –56.5 @ $1.90

Covering a –56.5 line is not easy in the modern game, but West Coast have been drilled in most of their games, and Hawthorn wants to bounce back after consecutive losses.

After leading the premiership after four weeks, Hawthorn has slipped with losses to Port Adelaide and Geelong. They were competitive games, and luckily for the Hawks, they get to play the Eagles, who have yet to win a game.

To their credit, they pushed Essendon close last week, but that followed heavy defeats to Carlton, GWS, and Fremantle. If Carlton can beat West Coast by 71 points, then Hawthorn can dominate and cover the –56.5 line with ease.

The line could move to around –58.5 on game day, so it’s best to jump on the current AFL odds for this game.

Same Game Multi

Hawthorn –56.5, Jack Gunston 3+ Goals, Mabior Chol 3+ Goals, Total Match Points Over 176.5 @ $9.50

There is good value with Hawthorn’s Jack Gunston and Maboir Chol, who are paying $2.15 and $3.05 respectively to score 3+ goals.

Scoring three goals isn’t easy, but it’s much easier when you’re playing West Coast. The goal looks twice as big, and Gunston scored six goals against Port Adelaide before backing up with three goals against Geelong.

Chol scored three last week, so they’re both in fantastic form, and the odds are much better than we expected. They boost the same game multi odds to a big number, and we’re here for it.

Hawthorn –56.5 and over 176.5 are also inclusions. The Hawks should score a big number, which will see it go over.

Best Value Bet

Jack Gunston First Goal Scorer @ $9.00

There isn’t much value in markets including Hawthorn because it’s at such short odds to win. However, there is value with Jack Gunston to score the opening goal.

He has been on fire recently, posting nine goals in his last two games, and that form is tough to look away from. He’ll look to get involved early in the game and set the tone for the Hawks, who could score 5-6 goals in the opening quarter.

Take the $9 and ride Gunston to get things going.
