Power vs Bulldogs, Monday Night AFL
Straight into Round 10 of the 2020 AFL Season and on a Monday Night we have the Power taking on the Bulldogs in Adelaide.
Both these sides are coming off very short breaks, with the Power playing last Thursday and the Bulldogs last Wednesday. This may have an impact in terms of fatigue, and it will be interesting to see which side copes with it the best.
A decent Round 9 of AFL action with some close encounters and the Power and Lions leading the way on the AFL Ladder.

Prediction
The Power is on one of the shortest breaks seen in the AFL, and the Demons came off the same break last round and got smashed.
The Bulldogs were disappointing in their clash against the Tigers, but do get Josh Dunkley back which will be a significant addition.
They have been good this season after a loss and may produce an upset in this clash. Patrick Ladhams was outclassed in the ruck against Max Gawn last week, and Tim English and the Bulldogs midfield have a chance to dominate the stoppages.
If their forwards can find some form, they will be right this against a Power side on a 4 daybreak.
Our Pick – Western Bulldogs (Win)
Player Prop – Marcus Bontempelli 1+ Goals
Lacking a bit up forward the Bulldogs and the addition of Josh Dunkley in the midfield may mean that Bontempelli has a spell up forward. Is due for a goal and usually gets a few chances.
