Essendon vs West Coast Eagles Preview

The two sides head into this fresh off the bye in Round 14. Both went down in their respective Round 13 games with Essendon suffering a 26-point loss at the hands of Carlton, while West Coast became the first side to lose to North Melbourne in 2024, going down to the Kangaroos by nine points.

Essendon head in as strong favourites on the back of their superior win-loss record in 2024, as well as the home ground advantage. The Bombers sit in 4th spot on the ladder and have won eight of their 13 matches, while they have drawn another.

West Coast have tasted victory just three times this season and are on a three-match losing streak. They have lost all of their games outside of Perth this season, with those losses coming at an average margin of 59 points.

Essendon are unbeaten at Marvel Stadium in 2024 with their four wins at the venue coming at an average margin of 23 points. Expect Nic Martin to find plenty of the footy, while Zach Merrett will be looking to bounce back after a relatively quiet game against Carlton. The Bombers will also be looking to convert better in front of goal.

Hard to see West Coast challenging Essendon in this one. Harley Reid remains on the sidelines due to suspension and some monster efforts will be needed from some of their senior players.
