AFL Spread Betting Tips: Finals Week 1

September 8th 2017, 2:03pm, By: andyrosos

Week 1 of the AFL finals is underway and with it we are back with another slate of spread betting tips from Pointsbet. Just the three games to go for the weekend so we’ll give you our best value tip from each game.

If you’re still unsure of how spread betting works, you can check out our complete guide to spread betting before you create your own Pointsbet account and start winning cash - make sure you understand spread betting 100% before you start though, because things can get very swingy. You can also take a look at our regular AFL Betting Tips for Week 1 here

AFL Finals Week 1 Spread Betting Tips

The Tigers and Cats both have top ten defences in terms of points allowed throughout the season and Richmond in particular have been the kings of keeping their opponents to around the 50-60 mark. We think the total points line is a bit high tonight considering it’s a finals game between two massive Victorian clubs so the intensity should be pretty high. We like the under here.

TIP: Total points UNDER 157

Zach Merret was fantastic through the earlier part of the season but suffered a mini form slump towards the end of the year. Should be a massive ask for him against a star-studded Sydney midfield and he has failed to reach 27 touches in 5 of his last 8 games. Should get a close run with role so we like the under here.  

TIP: Zach Merret UNDER 27 disposals

Two of the higher scoring teams in the comp in West Coast and Port Adelaide do battle on Saturday night and in what should be perfect conditions on a fast track in Perth, we are predicting a high scoring match. The Power in particular have the second highest scoring offence in the league so we like them to slot at least 14 goals, which they have done on 11 occasions this season.

TIP: Port Adelaide OVER 14 goals
