Sydney Swans vs Adelaide Crows Preview

Sydney’s finals hopes are fading fast, and Saturday night’s clash against a surging Adelaide outfit at the SCG shapes as make-or-break. The Swans were comprehensively outplayed by Melbourne last weekend, slumping to a 53-point defeat and a 4-7 record. After leading the league for scoring in 2024, Sydney has averaged just 77.1 points across its past seven games—losing five of them.

Adelaide, on the other hand, has sharpened up defensively and now ranks third for points against in 2025. The Crows sit 7-4 after dismantling West Coast by 66 points, continuing a strong run of form that contrasts sharply with Sydney’s downward spiral.

While history is firmly in the Swans’ favour—they’ve won six straight against Adelaide, including two big victories last season—the gap has closed. With confidence growing and a miserly defence, the Crows loom as favourites to end their losing streak in this fixture.
