Essendon Bombers vs Melbourne Demons Preview
Melbourne kept their finals hopes alive last week when scoring a narrow win over the GWS Giants but they must win this game to have any hope of playing finals.
Luckily for them they play Essendon who appear to have checked out of season 2020 and have barely put up a contest in recent weeks.
Unless things drastically change for Essendon then Melbourne should have no trouble winning this game.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Melbourne Demons to win at $1.50 odds.
