Prediction
The Lions need to keep winning to put pressure on a top-two finish. The Suns were impressive in their last clash and may surprise in this contest.
The Lions are definitely the better side and are favourites to win the midfield battle. If they can do that and some of their forwards can get their hands on the football, they should take care of the Suns.
Our Pick – Brisbane (Win)
Player Prop – Jack Bowes + 63.5 Fantasy Points
Hard to find a lot of value in this clash for player props, but Bowes plays down back and the ball should head there a lot on this clash. Has a season average of 65 and is averaging 73 over his past 4 weeks. Should cover this number in this clash.
