Adelaide Crows vs Geelong Cats Preview
It’s fair to say that last year was a year to forget for Adelaide. Depending how you look at it, playing Geelong in the opening round might be the best thing for them this year.
The Cats are obviously a classy opponent and should walk away with the points here, but Adelaide playing will take confidence if they can stay with their opponents for much of the game.
Geelong will win but Adelaide at the line might not be a bad bet.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Geelong Cats to win at $1.20 odds.
