Best Bet
The numbers strongly favour the visitors in this matchup and the Giants look good value getting the start. They have covered the line in nine of their last 10 against Collingwood and eight of their last nine as an underdog.
Collingwood have also been poor when favoured, failing to cover in eight straight matches as favourites, while the underdog has covered in 11 straight Collingwood games overall.
The game being played at Marvel Stadium instead of the MCG also reduces Collingwood’s usual home ground advantage.
The Magpies have looked ordinary in their two games so far. Their win over St Kilda could have gone either way and they were comfortably beaten by Adelaide at home. They may regain Jeremy Howe and Darcy Moore which will help structurally.
GWS should also regain some key players with Toby Bedford, Aaron Cadman and Brent Daniels likely to return, although Jack Buckley will miss through concussion. With improved availability and strong historical backing in this matchup, the Giants look well placed to keep this close.
Same Game Multi
Clayton Oliver is averaging over 28 disposals this season and has recorded 30 disposals in each of his last two games against Collingwood.
Finn Callaghan continues to develop into a high-possession midfielder and has recorded 25 or more disposals in seven straight matches.
Lachie Schultz rounds out the multi after kicking multiple goals in both games this season.
Value Bet
Former first round pick Phoenix Gothard looks ready to cement his spot in the Giants forward line. He impressed last week against St Kilda kicking 2.1 after solid performances in the previous two matches. If the Giants can generate enough inside 50s, Gothard looks a good chance to hit the scoreboard again at a generous price.
