Collingwood Magpies vs Adelaide Crows Round 10 AFL Tips - Battle of the Birds to go to the wire
The highly anticipated Round 10 AFL match between Collingwood Magpies and Adelaide Crows promises an intense battle. Experts predict a victory for the Magpies with their defensive prowess yet expect a narrow margin, probably seeing Adelaide cover the +15.5 line. Collingwood occupies a strong form position, having beaten tough opponents even while missing key players. However, Adelaide's accuracy in attack could challenge the Magpies if they stop defensive rebounds. With a close history of matches, expect a low scoring game, favoring a total going under.

Collingwood have held a domination over Adelaide winning 9 straight games dating back to 2018. But a lot of these games have been extremely close with 5 of the last 8 and the last 4 games straight being decided by 5 points or less.
The Magpies are 5-3 ATS as the favourite so far this year with Adelaide 1-1 as the Underdog. Road Underdogs of less than 15.5 points have covered at a 50% rate this year across the AFL. Add to that the fact that 69% of games have finished with margins of 1-39 and the numbers are pointing us in the right direction.
I expect this game to be a battle of Collingwood’s top level defence rated +8.2 against Adelaide’s top level attack where they are rated a +10.2. The Crows are more accurate in front of goal and take more marks Inside 50 than their opponent. If they are able to stop the rebound entries from Collingwood it will go a long way to ensuring they are close at the end of the game to cover the line.
For Collingwood they will likely own the midfield battle and if they can set their screens around stoppages they will exploit the comparative weakness in a similar fashion to Port Adelaide last weekend.
Take Adelaide to Cover or Collingwood 1-39 depending on your persuasion. The Total is likely to go Under in any case. Steele Sidebottom had just 7 touches vs Freo but reached 25+ in 4 straight games prior, expect him to see a bit more of the ball in this one.
- The margin of victory between these teams has been 5 or less in 4 straight games.
- The Magpies have won 9 straight games vs Adelaide but the Crows have covered in 4 straight matchups.
- The Game Total has gone Under in the last 3 games and in 6 of the last 8.
- Steele Sidebottom is averaging 23.7 disposals per game.

Collingwood beat Fremantle by 14 points on Thursday night footy last week which puts them at 2nd spot on the ladder, just 2 points behind the leaders Brisbane and with the 2nd best percentage of any team in the league.

The Crows held off a late surge from Port Adelaide in Showdown 57, winning in spectacular fashion 89-84 in front of over 53,000 screaming fans at Adelaide Oval.
Izak Rankine was the difference as he kicked two goals in 60 seconds in the 4th quarter to secure his team victory. He finished on 16 disposals including 3 clearances as well as 3 tackles for the game.
The Crows played more restrictive footy in the showdown with almost 50 fewer disposals than their season average, the majority coming from fewer handballs. Defensively they allowed Port to have 62 forward entries but worked hard to keep their efficiency below 47% which in turn kept the score manageable.
The Crows were completely outdone in clearances losing 56-29, the majority coming around stoppages, but Adelaide did well in cleaning up from there taking 20 intercept marks during the matchup.
