The AFL season for 2025 is set to kick off with an exciting match between Sydney and Hawthorn at the SCG. Despite some interruptions due to cyclones, the anticipation is high as the Swans take on the Hawks in what promises to be a thrilling encounter.
Sydney enters the game as the favorite with a -2.5 line, offering odds of $1.90. The Swans had a strong performance in 2024, covering the line in 16 out of 26 games, including 9 out of 14 at home. Although they faced a disappointing defeat in the Grand Final, a change in coaching staff to the resilient Dean Cox has injected new energy into the team. Their pre-season victories against the Giants and Suns indicate a strong start to the year.
On the other hand, Hawthorn has shown signs of sluggishness in the lead-up to the season, suffering losses to the Cats and a depleted Bulldogs team. Following their impressive run in 2024, some regression was expected, and early indicators suggest a challenging start for the Hawks.
Despite missing Errol Gulden, Sydney seems poised to dominate the midfield battle, giving them an edge over Hawthorn. Backing the Swans to secure a victory in the opening round appears to be a wise choice.
For a more comprehensive betting experience, a Same Game Multi option is available, combining Swans -2.5, Heeney Anytime Goal, Sicily & Roberts 20+ Disposals. Heeney, known for his consistent goal-scoring ability, Sicily’s proficiency in distributing from half-back, and Roberts’ role as a key distributor off half-back, make this selection an intriguing proposition.
Additionally, a Value Bet on Matt Roberts achieving 30+ Disposals could be a lucrative option. With Roberts emerging as Sydney’s primary distributor last season, his performance in pre-season matches and past games indicates his potential to surpass the 30-disposal mark in the upcoming fixture.
