Canberra is not impressive this season in terms of the level of its players. They have a decent rotation of players from the second-strongest Australian league, but this is not enough to claim prizes. The foreigners are not impressive, so we predict 5th or 6th place at the end of the season.
Bendigo has an excellent selection of players. Almost all participants have WNBL experience, which is likely to help them this year as well. We note the opportunities for rotation, because there are very remarkable figures even on the bench. We believe the away game against Canberra won’t be easy, but we do not expect Bendigo to lose heavily.
Our prediction: Bendigo not to lose heavily. We recommend the “2 Hand (+5.5)” bet, odds 1.67
