Adelaide Crows vs GWS Giants Prediction: Giants remain favorites like every other fixture

At Adelaide Oval, the Adelaide Crows will take on the GWS Giants in the round 16 AFL round of fixtures. The previous weekend, the two sides ended up losing against their respective opponents. How will they respond in this fixture? Below, I look into the match previews and provide betting opportunities. 

Adelaide Crows

Adelaide Crows will look to end their run of losses when they take on the field here. Their last time out in the league against the Sydney Swans made it three consecutive matches for the Crows that ended in defeats. In the meantime, in the first two defeats, the Adelaide Crows lost to Richmond Tigers and the Hawthorn Hawks, games that finished 71-79 and 107-80, respectively. However, Adelaide Crows have just one win in their last six games, coming against the West Coast Eagles, losing to Collingwood Magpies and drawing Brisbane Lions in other encounters. 

This season, the Adelaide Crows have not had much luck in the AFL, as they are positioned outside the playoff spots. The Adelaide Crows have 18 points so far from 14 matches, positioning them 15th in the league standings, 22 point adrift playoffs placed sides. 

GWS Giants

GWS Giants have had inconsistent performances lately, and they will look to get a better result here. The previous week, the GWS Giants took on the league-leading Sydney Swans, and they ended in the losing game, which finished 75-102. 

However, with last weekend's defeat, GWS Giants have lost as many as five of their last seven games. In that run of games, GWS Giants picked up wins only in their games against Geelong Cats and the Port Adelaide Power. Yet, the GWS Giants ended on the losing end in their games against the Essendon Bombers, Western Bulldogs, and the Hawthorn Hawks in that run of matches. This season in the AFL, The GWS Giants have 32 points accumulated from 14 matches, thanks to a strong season start. Currently, they are seated in the 6th spot in the standings and have a 110.51 percentile. 

Expert Betting Tips

This is a tough game to pick, looking at the standings of both sides in this fixture. The GWS Giants have had the luck in this fixture but have not pulled off any strong performances lately. Either at home or on the road, the Adelaide Crows have been disappointing also, and it is tough to back them. With a bye-week, you can make a case that they could be the strong side in this one. Yet, I feel the GWS Giants have a better squad, and on their best day, they should be able to get the job done.
