Preview:
The Eagles probably did not play their best against the Pies last weekend but still got the job done as good teams do and with the Magpies coming out and beating the Giants well that form has stacked up.
The Eagles are a very hard team to beat at home and we except that to be the case on Saturday night.
The Demons were comprehensive winners over the Hawks after being tested early in the last quarter they found another gear and kicked a way for a good win.
Melbourne continue to get better and they will take a lot of confidence into Saturday nights match.
Demons in a tight one.
