Western Bulldogs - North Melbourne Kangaroos Tipovi i prognoze

This Sunday's Round 22 clash at Marvel Stadium shapes as a genuine contest between two sides battling to secure their place in the finals conversation . The Western Bulldogs hold a clear edge historically, having won 15 of the last 26 meetings, including an undefeated record against North Melbourne this decade and a seven-game winning streak over them . Recent form only strengthens their case; the Bulldogs are riding a four-game winning streak and sit 8th on the ladder with 36 points, while the Kangaroos have split their last four and are two wins back in 11th . However, despite the ladder gap and the Kangaroos being priced as underdogs around 33% implied probability , this one could be closer than expected. North Melbourne have already exceeded most preseason predictions and are playing competitive football . Recent season series scores have been tighter, with the Bulldogs winning 134-85 (49 points) and 113-97 (16 points) in their 2025 meetings . The safe bet is the Western Bulldogs to win given their red-hot form and strong dominance in this fixture, though the Kangaroos are playing with enough spirit to suggest they can cover a hefty spread.
