Adelaide Crows vs Gold Coast SUNS Preview

Adelaide has the chance to strengthen its top-four position when it hosts a Gold Coast side whose finals hopes are rapidly fading. The Suns have now dropped six straight matches and continue to struggle defensively, a concern that could prove costly against one of the league’s most efficient attacking teams. The Crows were below their best against West Coast but still secured the points, and the expected returns of Wayne Milera and Callum Ah Chee provide another boost ahead of this home fixture. Gold Coast has never won at Adelaide Oval against the Crows, while Ben Long’s suspension only adds to the visitors’ growing list of challenges.
