Collingwood Magpies vs Adelaide Crows Match Prediction 17 May 2025

Collingwood Magpies have been at top level this season, and it is just difficult to see them suffer a defeat. While they have shown a lot of attacking abilities this season, their defense level has also been top notch which gives them a good chance in this game. In the meantime, the Adelaide Crows have shown they can not be written off by any side this season, pulling off top performances against tough sides. In fact, the level they have shown in attack can not be ignored, looking at how close their defeats have been and their fighting spirit. Yet, I feel the Collingwood Magpies have what it takes to win this game, but I believe the Adelaide Crows will do well to threaten in offense.
