The Power have won 5 of their last 7 as a home favourite but in what looms as a low-scoring clash., the margin of error is minimal for both teams. The Under has held on in 12 of the last 14 meetings and in each of the Power\u2019s last 5 games leading into this one. There has been an average of 153.2 total match points in those games.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"teams-tip-button\">\t\t\t\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/australian-rules\/afl\/port-adelaide-vs-melbourne\/7d6c7920-2e06-4132-9e7d-1da7dddaf212\" target=\"_blank\" \n          data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"7d6c7920-2e06-4132-9e7d-1da7dddaf212\" data-tr-event-id=\"7d6c7920-2e06-4132-9e7d-1da7dddaf212\"  \n          >Bet Now<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"entain-block teams-tip-block hoverable\">\n  <div class=\"teams-tip-header\">\n    <div class=\"teams-tip-header-meta\">\n      <!--div class=\"teams-tip-header-meta__inner\"-->\n        <div class=\"team-vs-team\" style=\"display:flex\">\n          <span class=\"icon\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-afl-icon.svg?v=20261013b#west-coast-eagles\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span>\n          <div style=\"display:flex; flex-direction:row; flex-wrap:wrap; justify-content:center; align-items:center; text-align:center; column-gap:5px; font-weight: 700\">\n            <div class=\"team_1\" style=\"flex-direction:column;\">West Coast Eagles<\/div>\n            <div class=\"versus\" style=\"font-weight:normal;font-style:italic;\">vs<\/div>\n            <div class=\"team_2\">Carlton<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"info\">8:10pm, Sunday | Optus Stadium,  Perth<\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"bet-on\" style=\"margin-top:0\">Carlton 17 Goals or More<\/div>\n                                  <\/div>\n          <span class=\"icon\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-afl-icon.svg?v=20261013b#carlton-fc\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <!--\/div -->\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n      <div class='teams-tip-content'>\n      <p>We may only be at the midway point of the season but a loss to the Kangaroos last week means that the Eagles are facing a second wooden spoon in three seasons. The Blues held on for a narrow win over the Bombers and are perfectly placed to start climbing the ladder. They are 5-0 both straight up and at the line in their last 5 against the Eagles in a stretch of games that they have averaged a whipping 125.6 points. The Over has hit in 5 of the last 6 battles hosted by the Eagles and has also hit in 70% of Eagles home games played in the last year. Last week the Blues delivered by winning the opening term by a big margin and are likely to repeat that here as the Eagles have trailed at the first break in 77% of games played this season.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"teams-tip-button\">\t\t\t\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/australian-rules\/afl\/west-coast-eagles-vs-carlton\/c66fb54d-42a4-4f5c-b48e-d7b9f3cb07b6\" target=\"_blank\" \n          data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"c66fb54d-42a4-4f5c-b48e-d7b9f3cb07b6\" data-tr-event-id=\"c66fb54d-42a4-4f5c-b48e-d7b9f3cb07b6\"  \n          >Bet Now<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Saints ended a 3-game losing streak with a win over the Demons in Round 12 and had plenty of time to prepare for the Bulldogs courtesy of the bye last week.
