Sydney Swans v Brisbane Lions tips

Our AFL betting expert has examined the odds and found several value Swans v Lions tips for Sunday’s game.

Most disposals group betting

This is a predetermined group at Unibet, where you have to pick the player who will get the most possessions. Brisbane’s Brownlow Medal favourite Lachie Neale is offering a juicy $2.50 to get most possessions, which is the most generous odds we’ve seen on him in several weeks. He is in the group with the likes of Jake Lloyd, Josh Kennedy, Luke Parker and Jarryd Lyons, but we think Neale will outshine all-comers. 

Brisbane to lead at every quarter 

This market is available in wire-to-wire betting and is paying $2 for Brisbane to lead at every change and win the match. The Lions are a much more efficient team this year and despite having one day’s less rest than their opponent we can see them dominating this match from start to finish. 


Sydney vs Brisbane prediction 13/9/2020

Brisbane have not really convinced us of their premiership credentials and it doesn’t help that Harris Andrews may not play again this year. But they are playing a team that is rebuilding and has key players missing. We just can’t see the gallant Swans mounting a case to win this game and we’re confident that the Lions will lock in their top four position on Sunday. Our final Brisbane v Sydney prediction? Lions by 32 points.
