Brisbane vs. Gold Coast Predictions

Best Bet

Brisbane –10.5 @ $1.90

Experience and class are with Brisbane, and that should give it an advantage against the Gold Coast SUNS on Sunday. The defending AFL premiers have a 6-1 record to Gold Coast’s 5-1, so they’re both playing well, but with Brisbane playing at home and coming off a big win over St Kilda, it should have the edge on Sunday night. Brisbane’s only loss came to the Collingwood Magpies when losing 105-53, and although that was a poor performance, scoring 118 points last week made up for it. That could be tough for Gold Coast to hang with it, and the SUNS have a loss to Richmond on their record. Take the –10.5 line, which could move before game day.

Same Game Multi

Brisbane -10.5, Epic Hipwood 2+ Goals, Ben King 2+ Goals, Will Ashcroft 25+ Disposals @ $5.50

Epic Hipwood has been the driving force behind Brisbane’s offence, including 11 goals from his last three games. He gets in front of goal with ease, and it’s why he’s a $1.57 chance to score 2+ goals. We were going to back him for 3+ goals, but it’s better to play safer with same game multis, and that’s why we also have Ben King 2+ goals. He scored five last week against Sydney, and we would be surprised if he didn’t kick at least two on Sunday. If you want more value, back King or Hipwood to score 3+, but it comes with risk. We’re including Will Ashcroft 25+ disposals at $1.74. He has been a touch inconsistent, but he had 35 disposals last week in a mammoth effort, and that was the third time in his last five games with more than 30. He’s good enough to get 25 or more against the SUNS.

Best Value Bet

Eric Hipwood First Goal Scorer @ $10.50

Hipwood could get things up and running for Brisbane in front of a home crowd, and getting $10.50 is a good price from bookmakers. He likes to make his mark on the game early, and although we tossed up between him and King, we predict Brisbane making a better start. It could be another big game for the Lions forward, who take a pearler of a mark to set himself up for an easy goal.
