North Melbourne vs Sydney Swans Preview

North Melbourne and Sydney, both holding 1-2 records heading into Round 4 of the 2025 season, are set to clash at Marvel Stadium on Saturday night in a crucial contest for each club. It’s not often that North Melbourne finds itself level or ahead of Sydney on the ladder this early in the year, but despite a 114-78 defeat to Adelaide last week, the Roos have shown glimpses of progress. The Swans come into the match fresh from a bye, having edged Fremantle 68-65 in a tense Round 2 encounter. When these sides last met, Sydney dominated in a 138-59 blowout at the SCG, led by a standout performance from Errol Gulden — who tallied 41 disposals, 738 metres gained, and 15 score involvements before injury sidelined him this year. While Sydney has won the past eight meetings between the two, only two of those wins have been by more than 14 points. That gives North Melbourne hope of keeping things competitive as they aim to continue their upward trajectory.
