Sydney Swans vs Carlton Blues Preview

Sydney and Carlton will face off at the SCG on Friday night, both sides in desperate need of a win to stay in the finals race. Sydney, with a 3-6 record, likely faces an uphill battle to keep their season alive after a disappointing 71-63 loss to Essendon last weekend. In contrast, Carlton enters the clash full of confidence, having won four of their last five matches, including a 77-62 victory over St Kilda, where Harry McKay was instrumental with 19 disposals, 12 contested possessions, 10 marks, and three goals. However, recent history suggests the Blues may struggle at the SCG, where they’ve won just once since 2012, with 10 subsequent losses by an average margin of 39.2 points. In their last meeting, Sydney triumphed 117-65 in Round 10, 2024, led by Chad Warner’s 28 disposals, 561 metres gained, 14 score involvements, and three goals. This matchup is crucial for both teams, with finals aspirations hanging in the balance.
