Adelaide Crows vs Brisbane Women Tips

The Adelaide Crows are looking to make it three wins in a row this week as they try to take a major step towards the AFLW Grand Finals.

Brisbane may have won their last outing against Melbourne, but they know they will have to take their game to another level this week if they are to beat the Crows.

Head To Head

Brisbane beat their opponents 43-39 when they last met back in October, with this extending their winning run to three matches. In their last 10, Brisbane have seven wins, while the Crows have won three times.

Adelaide Crows Form

The Adelaide Crows impressed across the home and away season, with the side winning nine of their 10 matches and losing just once to see them top the ladder ahead of Melbourne in second.

Their brilliant run this season has given them a huge chance to make it to the Grand Finals this term, and they can make a big statement by downing Brisbane this week. However, they will be aware of the fact that they have struggled against their opponents, winning just three of their last 10 meetings.

With the chance to avoid an awkward semi-final place by winning this one, the Crows will look to draw on the energy of the home crowd as they try to back up their brilliant regular season.

Brisbane Form

Despite finishing in fourth on the ladder in the home and away season, Brisbane will be confident that they can stun the regular season leaders this week.

Seven wins and three defeats means they were just eight points short of the Crows at the summit, with Brisbane going under the radar due to how congested the top-eight positions on the ladder were.

Brisbane will arrive knowing that they are the underdogs, and this will work in their favour as they try to unsettle their opponents. However, despite being in decent form, I predict that home advantage will see the Crows over the line in what could prove to be a pulsating match.
