Essendon Bombers vs Melbourne Demons Odds

Essendon Bombers vs Melbourne Demons Preview

The Demons find themselves in an all-too familiar position as they hope to avoid finishing ninth for the second time in the last four years.

Melbourne fans should be rooting for GWS on Friday night against the Saints before tackling the Bombers at Metricon on Saturday.

Winning is paramount this week for the Dees, but if they can go about it in spectacular fashion, they’ll really boost their chances.

A win by 25 points or more would help separate the Dees and the Saints on percentage, while a Bulldogs loss to Fremantle would also help Melbourne’s cause.

The Demons find themselves in this spot after losing back-to-back games to Sydney and Fremantle, so if you’re feeling a little anxious about backing Melbourne, you probably aren’t the only one.

Essendon, on the other hand, will relish the chance to spoil the party.

The Dons have now lost three straight in blowout fashion, but they will hold fond memories of last year’s 130-112 win over the Demons.

This game probably won’t be quite as high scoring, but don’t be surprised if the Dons give up a ton of points.

Four of Essendon’s last five opponents have scored over 70 points, likely due to the fact they rank fourth in goals allowed.
