The Crows had wins over big wins over GWS and St. Kilda and made it three wins on the trot with a miraculous one point win over North in round 9.
The Crows were unable to make it four in a row last week thought, when in very poor conditions, they were outslugged by an in-form Fremantle last week 59-66.
The loss took their record at AAMI to four losses from six starts.
The Swans won five of their first six and cruising along as expected however, after a loss Hawthorn and a draw with Fremantle in rounds 7 and 8 respectively, the Swans have kicked up a gear in recent weeks and registered big wins over Collingwood (47 points) and Essendon (44 points) in the past two weeks.
Sydney’s last visit to Adelaide was a victorious one (71-42) in the first week of the Finals last year.
It was the forth time in the past seven games that the two sides have produced a total match score of less than 150 points.
The Swans have the momentum to continue their winning ways here.
