Best Bet

Gold Coast –12.5 @ $1.90

This is a different Gold Coast team to the ones Sydney has previously faced, and that’s why we’re picking the SUNS to win and cover the spread.

Gold Coast has faced some tough losses throughout its history, and bouncing back from a loss to the lowly Richmond Tigers won’t be easy. However, after that slip up, a win over the Swans would see it stay inside the top four.

It followed some impressive wins over North Melbourne, Adelaide, Melbourne, and West Coast. That form was good enough to see them near the top of the premiership, and Sydney is there for the taking after consecutive losses to Collingwood and Port Adelaide.

Include Gold Coast –12.5 in AFL picks, as the SUNS love a Sunday afternoon game.

Same Game Multi

Gold Coast -12.5, Ben Long 2+ Goals, Touk Miller 25+ Disposals, Total Match Points Over 174.5 @ $6.75

Ben Long pays $1.84 to score 2+ goals, and having scored six in his last two games, that’s a good value bet. Long has 13 goals from his last five games, so he’s kicking well, and we thought he would be around $1.60 to post a double.

He’s well worth including in Gold Coast vs. Sydney same game multis, alongside Touk Miller 25+ disposals. He had 33 against Richmond last week, and although it came in a losing effort, he gave his team every chance. Miller has had 25+ disposals in three of his last five games, so it’s a good statistical bet.

It should be a high-scoring game on Sunday, so include over 174.5. They scored 204 points in 2023, and although the totals since have been lower, Gold Coast has scored over 119 points in three of their last four games, including 141 against North Melbourne.

Best Value Bet

Hayden McLean 3+ Goals @ $4.40

Sydney’s best chance to score goals comes with Hayden McLean, who kicked three goals against Collingwood before kicking two last week.

We expect the Swans’ offence to be through McLean, and his form suggests he has a good chance to kick 3+ goals. Punters get a healthy $4.40 for McLean to have a big game, and he’s our best AFL value bet for this game.
