Quick Insight

At the time of writing Unibet had the head to head for the West Coast Eagles set at $3.25, and $1.34 for the St Kilda Saints, This sets the bookmakers implied probability for both teams as follows:

Eagles 29.21%
Saints 70.79%

The Betting Edge

Unibet’s got St Kilda as the heavy favourite at $1.34, with an implied win probability of 70.79%. West Coast are way out at $3.25, suggesting only a 29.21% chance of pulling off the upset.

Our model still favours the Saints, but not quite that strongly, we’ve got St Kilda winning 64.07% of the time, with the Eagles sitting at 35.93%. So while St Kilda are the rightful frontrunners, the market’s being a little too bullish, leaving a small pocket of value on West Coast.

The Saints are ahead across nearly every key stat, but if you’re value hunting, there’s a case to be made for the Eagles at those odds, especially if they can stay competitive early.

What to do?

St Kilda are in a great spot to take the win, they’re stronger in both the front and backline, and putting up better numbers across the board. But with the market giving them a huge 70%+ chance, there’s not a lot of meat left on that bone at $1.34.

If you’re after a low-risk play, the Saints are solid. But if you’re chasing value, West Coast might just be worth a cheeky flyer. Our model gives them closer to a 36% shot, which is definitely more than the odds suggest. Risky, yes, but possibly worth a nibble.

Best bet is to take the West Coast +18.5 with this one.

As for multis, take the West Coast +18.5, UNDER 168.5, St Kilda 1-39 for $6.75 with Unibet.
