Brisbane Lions vs Port Adelaide Power Preview

In their most recent clash in the regular season, the Brisbane Lions battled fiercely to secure a win against the St Kilda Saints, emerging victorious with a scoreline of 72-60. This triumph extended their winning streak to four consecutive victories.

On the flip side, the Port Adelaide Power managed to secure their third consecutive win at the end of August, defeating the Richmond Tigers with a score of 94-63.

Head to Head:

The Power delivered an impressive performance in their last face-off back in March, securing a convincing 126-72 win over the Lions. Looking at their last ten meetings, both teams have shared the spoils with five victories each, setting the stage for an evenly matched showdown.

Brisbane Lions Form:

The Brisbane Lions have displayed excellence throughout the season and are poised as a formidable force as they aim to build on their impressive tally of 17 wins during the home and away season. They enter the upcoming clash with the Power riding a wave of momentum, having triumphed over the Fremantle Dockers, Adelaide Crows, Collingwood Magpies, and St Kilda Saints in their last four games.

While the Lions come into this match as favorites, they are fully aware that they must bring their absolute best to secure victory. Although they have the safety net of a semi-final if they fall short, their primary objective is to advance directly to the Preliminary Finals.

Brisbane Lions Team News:

Lyons has been omitted from the lineup, making room for McCarthy’s inclusion.

Port Adelaide Form:

The Port Adelaide Power managed to break free from a challenging four-game losing streak by clinching three consecutive wins against the GWS Giants, Fremantle Dockers, and Richmond Tigers. These victories propelled them to the third spot on the ladder, sharing points with their upcoming opponents, the Lions.

Having dominated their previous encounter with the Lions, winning convincingly with a scoreline of 126-72, the Power approach this match with a sense of confidence. However, they acknowledge that they are facing an opponent in exceptional form and will need to deliver a near-flawless performance to secure victory.

Hayes, Evans, and Boak have been left out of the lineup, and Jonas is unavailable due to injury. The Power have decided to include McKenzie, Marshall, and Lycett for this crucial match.
