Sydney Swans vs West Coast Eagles Prediction: Will Eagles say no to defeat?

This weekend, the Sydney Cricket Ground hosts Round 15 of the Australian Football League match between the Sydney Swans and the West Coast Eagles. After losing a second consecutive game against the Brisbane Lions, the Sydney Swans will hope for a better performance here. The West Coast Eagles, on the other hand, were completely dominated by the Adelaide Crows in their most recent game, losing 174-52.

Sydney Swans - Swans should get an easy win

With victories against the North Melbourne Kangaroos and the Carlton Blues to round out the month of May, the Sydney Swans appeared to be rediscovering their footing. However, they then suffered losses to the St. Kilda Saints and Brisbane Lions, both of which are presently ranked in the AFL's top five. The Swans haven't had much success at home this season, winning just two of six games. The Eagles are in terrible shape, but they have beaten them in prior years, so they should feel confident going into this match. Lance Franklin's comeback from knee injuries is possible for the Swans, while Issac Heeney's return from a concussion is also possible. Tom McCartin has resumed training in full, and Callum Mills is expected to rejoin him soon.

West Coast Eagles - Eagles disappointing run has no end yet

The West Coast Eagles have struggled mightily this season, as they presently sit at the bottom of the standings with only one victory to show for their 13 matches played thus far. Their miserable season has resulted in them entering this game on the heels of an embarrassing losing streak of 11 games, which was prolonged by a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Adelaide Crows (174-52). The Eagles have lost their previous six consecutive road games by a margin of 100 points or more, so my concerns are elevated for them in this contest. Tom Barrass should be able to return to action for the Eagles after dealing with an issue with his hip, and Sannon Hurn and Jeremy McGovern also have a chance to play again after dealing with concerns with their hamstrings. In the meantime, Liam Duggan and Elijah Hewett are also potential candidates to make a comeback.

Expert Betting Tips

Considering how ineffective this West Coast Eagles team has been throughout the season, both defensively and offensively, the Swans should have no trouble making a mockery of this contest. In the meantime, I think it will be best to bet on over here, as the odds appear large enough to be considered, and as I expect that West Coast Eagles will allow many runs exactly like they have lost with more than 100 points in each of their most recent six matches.
