The prediction

North Melbourne come into this one on the back of a slender six-point victory over the Gold Coast Suns in their most recent outing. That victory ended what was a four-match losing streak for the hosts.

They now face a Fremantle side that have been extremely impressive throughout the campaign, captained by Alex Pearce. The Dockers are sitting four points clear of the Sydney Swans at the top of the AFL ladder.

Freo have won 11 of their 12 matches this season and, while North Melbourne got themselves a morale boosting win last week, Freo have to remain firm favourites once again.
