West Coast vs Fremantle Prediction
West Coast hasn’t had the best run this season. But their last match against Richmond ended with a confidence-boosting victory for the Eagles. The win was a callback to their prime form and will definitely increase their morale as they go up against the Dockers are sure to be the more ferocious side in this match.
Fremantle have more to lose in this matchup. They started off strong this season and have since encountered more competition than they can handle. Their scoring has gone down significantly in their last three games and though they've beaten the Eagles in the past, they know they'll be up for a tough match against a now stronger West Coast. That said, they'll be looking to add a win to their record and move upwards in the rankings.
This will likely be a low-scoring contest that will see West Coast walking away with the victory.
Prediction: West Coast by 28 points
