Betting 2024 AFL Finals

The Australian Football League will be wrapping up the 2024 season soon, just as the NFL season is set to begin in the United States.

It’s now time for the AFL Finals to get going, and there will be four interesting matchups taking place during Week 1.

The rules for the AFL might be a bit different than those in the NFL, but there are still going to be the same betting options available.

Now is the time where teams must win to advance, and that is going to put some additional pressure on all of the teams taking the field.

Here is a look at each of the AFL Finals Week 1 matchups, and picks on how the games will turn out.

 

Writer’s Footy Picks for AFL Finals

Port Adelaide Power -11 vs. Geelong Cats

The first matchup to check out will be a battle between Port Adeleaid and the Geelong Cats, and this line is extremely interesting.

These teams finished right next to each other in the standings, but they have very different odds to win the title.

Port Adelaide has odds set at +450 to win the league title, while the Geelong Cats are sitting at +800.

Injuries are going to impact Geelong in this game, and that’s a reason for the spread being so large.

Taking the points and backing Geelong is the right bet to make, but it will be Port Adelaide that moves on to the next round.


 

Western Bulldogs -5 vs. Hawthorn Hawks

The AFL Finals Week 1 game with the tightest spread is this battle between the Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn Hawks.

Western will only need to win by at least six points to cover the spread, and Hawthorn wants to keep it much closer than that.

This should be a game in which both teams are able to get some big stops, and that is going to keep the game tight throughout.

Look for Western to break through late in the game, and they will cover the small spread in this matchup.


 

Sydney Swans -7.5 vs. GWS Giants

The winner of the matchup between Sydney and GWS is expected to be the clear favorite to win the league title this season.

Both these teams have been great all season long, and that is going to create an interesting betting opportunity.

The GWS Giants are looking to pull off a stunning upset of their rival in this one, and they are actually talented enough to get that done.

It’s just too hard to fully trust them though, and taking the Syndey Swans to win and cover -7.5 is the way to go.


 

Brisbane Lions -23.5 vs. Carlton Blues

It was a rough season for the Carlton Blues, but they were able to sneak into the finals by being the eighth seed in the league standings.

Carlton is getting 23.5 points ahead of this matchup, and that shows that they are not very well respected.

Brisbane hasn’t exactly been dominant this season, but they will be good enough to win this game over Carlton.

It’s just too hard to see them winning by at least 24, and this is another opportunity to take the points.
