Carlton Blues vs Geelong Cats Prediction: Blues to win this game

Melbourne Cricket Ground will host the AFL week 15 encounter between the Carlton Blues and Geelong Cats. How will this game end? 

Carlton Blues are coming off their third win in a row, and in this one, they will look to keep things rolling. Last time out, this team took on an Essendon Bombers side, and they secured a 26-win margin in a 70-96 encounter. However, prior encounters to that win saw this team defeat the Port Adelaide Power and the Gold Coast Suns. Heading into this game, Carlton Blues have 36 points from 13 matches, leaving them 2nd in the AFL standings. 

Geelong Cats are off a defeat to Sydney Swans last time out, and in this game, they will hope for a better result. This team has not had a very good result in their last matches, as they have lost five of their last six. In fact, their lone victory was against a poor Richmond Tigers side. However, this team lost to the GWS Giants, Gold Coast Suns, Port Adelaide Power and the Melbourne Demons. This season, Geelong Cats have accumulated 32 points in the AFL, positioning them 6th in the standings.

We have witnessed consistent performances from the Carlton Blues, and at home, it is difficult to see anything other than a win for them. Also, in the Geelong Cats' recent losses, they have at least closed the losing gap and while this should be a similar result, a bet on points is another option.
