North Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs Prediction: Both teams are in poor shape

At Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, North Melbourne and the Western Bulldogs will square off against each other. Both of these teams have been having a lot of trouble recently, leading up to this showdown. Which side, on the other hand, secures a victory?

Since Round 2, North Melbourne has not had a single victory, and the team is currently mired in an 11-game losing streak. Last Saturday at Blundstone Arena, the team suffered a defeat at the hands of GWS by a score of 28 points. Caretaker coach Brett Ratten has been in charge for the past four of those games. While veterans Liam Shiels and Jack Ziebell found enough of the footy, Nick Larkey and Tarryn Thomas combined for seven goals for the team. In the end, a gap that occurred late in the third quarter and early in the final quarter proved to be expensive. The North Melbourne team will play their next game at Marvel Stadium, where they have lost by a slim margin in both of their last two contests played there. Despite what the ladder indicates, this match looks like it will be a close one due to the fact that their younger players should produce a solid contest.

The Western Bulldogs have a record of 7-6 when it comes to wins and losses. However, the Western Bulldogs are the favorites to win this match and will be seeking to get back on track after suffering three consecutive defeats, the most recent of which came at the hands of Port Adelaide, Geelong, and the Gold Coast. Even though Adam Treloar, Tom Liberatore, Marcus Bontempelli, and Bailey Dale all had more than 30 disposals in the Bulldogs' game against the Power the previous weekend, the Bulldogs were still defeated by a score of 22 points. The Dogs will be seeking to improve their ball control in the coming games in an effort to cut down on the number of points their team has given up as a result of turnovers in recent games. The Bulldogs currently hold the eighth position on the ladder. The Bulldogs are ranked sixth when it comes to the average number of disposals. The Bulldogs are currently ranked 14th in the league in terms of the average number of goals scored.

Both teams will need to have their minds completely on the task at hand in order to emerge victorious from this confrontation, which promises to be challenging. On the other hand, despite the fact that North Melbourne have not won a single game so far this season, the Western Bulldogs are still a little bit better, particularly when they compete against a side that is one level below them. As a result, we anticipate that the away team will prevail in this match.
