Adelaide Crows vs Greater Western Sydney Giants Preview
Two sides looking to bounce-back meet on Saturday in a game that holds plenty of weight as far as the ladder is concerned.
The Giants have a lot to feel good about following last week’s loss to the Bulldogs, but it’s safe to say Leon Cameron will be asking questions of his side after a close game turned into a blowout in the final quarter.
Likewise, the Crows follow a similar script after blowing a 30-point lead last week against the Hawks in Launceston.
Now at 3-3, a win for Adelaide would likely be enough to help them back inside the eight, while the Giants can improve to 3-4 and potentially move one step closer to playing finals.
If history has taught us anything, it’s that we should expect a close game between these two clubs.
The Crows have won back-to-back games over GWS dating back to 2019, but it’s worth noting both have come by no more than three goals.
Also working in the Crows’ favour is their strong 7-1 record against the Giants in games played at the Adelaide Oval.
As the market suggests, a win from either club wouldn’t surprise, but the Crows still look good value with home-field advantage.
