The last time these two teams met was in Round 7 this year in which Adelaide won by fifty points at AAMI Stadium.

Geelong’s team will be boosted with the inclusion of Jimmy Bartel and Allen Christensen who will replace Matthew Scarlett and Jordan Murdoch.

Adelaide will make the same amount of changes with leading goal scorer Taylor Walker and Luke Thompson coming back into the team for Kurt Tippett and Andy Otten.

Geelong go into the match as favourites due to the home ground advantage but Adelaide have been arguably one of the best teams in the competition this year and should make it a very tough test.

WHERE AND WHEN: Simonds Stadium, Saturday July 28, 1.45pm
LAST TIME: Adelaide 19.8 (122) d Geelong 10.12 (72), round seven, 2012 at AAMI Stadium
