Adelaide Crows vs Sydney Swans Prediction, Preview, Team News and More: AFL Round 14, 2024

On Saturday, June 15, the Adelaide Crows host the Sydney Swans at the Adelaide Oval in the AFL Round 14. Adelaide, on the brink of missing out on a top-eight spot, having lost their last two matches, will look to keep their finals hope alive against the league leaders.

Their only win in five games came against West Coast in Round 11, which was an expected result. They've since then lost back-to-back games against Hawthorn and Richmond, sinking them down to 15th with a 4-1-8 record.

Adelaide's form makes it tough to envisage a victory over a high-flying Sydney. The Swans extended their winning streak by eight games with an impressive victory over Geelong.

The Cats took a healthy lead at the start of the game by kicking the first six goals, but John Lingmore's side showed champion mentality by coming from behind to win 112-82.

Their recent performance rubber-stamped their credentials as premiership favorites. The Swans will look to extend their streak to nine games against a weaker Crows side. They have beaten Adelaide in their last four meetings and unless they are complacent, they should win this matchup with ease.
