Gold Coast Suns vs North Melbourne Prediction: An easy one for the hosts

At the TIO Oval 2 in Marrara, Gold Coast Suns will play North Melbourne in the AFL week 9 action. Gold Coast Suns are favorites here, while North Melbourne will come in as underdogs. 

The Gold Coast Suns are coming off a defeat at the hands of Brisbane Lions last weekend. In the meantime, that defeat was Gold Coast Suns’ third in their last five games, with two others coming against Giants and Sydney Swans. However, Gold Coast Suns also secured victories in their encounters against West Coast Eagles and the Hawthorn Hawks. This season, the Gold Coast Suns are seated in 10th place in the standings, with 16 points from 8 games.

North Melbourne are coming off a defeat against St Kilda Saints. In the meantime, North Melbourne have lost all of their matches this season. In that run, North Melbourne lost to GWS Giants, Fremantle Dockers, Carlton Blues, Brisbane Lions, Geelong Cats, Hawthorn Hawks, and the Adelaide Crows. This season, North Melbourne have yet to secure its first points, and it currently sits at the bottom of the standings.

The North Melbourne are just no fit for another side yet, and this side keeps struggling week in and week out. However, while the Suns have not been exceptional either, the fact they are at home here and taking on a poor side should make them dominate. Expect this game to be a one-sided affair, with Gold Coast Suns getting passed easily.
