Hawthorn Hawks vs Adelaide Crows Prediction: Crows to shock Hawks at home

Melbourne Cricket Ground will host this AFL game between Hawthorn Hawks and Adelaide Crows. Both teams are off a win and will hope to keep things rolling here. Let’s look at this game from a betting perspective and make a pick.

Hawthorn Hawks secured a 100-75 win over Brisbane Lions last weekend. In that game, Hawthorn Hawks had a decent performance in the first two quarters, securing 27-9 and 32-26 wins. However, quarter 3 ended in a 9-25 defeat, but a huge 32-15 quarter 3 was all this team needed to push themselves to a win. However, a look at this team’s last five matches reads three wins, two others against St Kilda Saints and Western Bulldogs. In the meantime, this team has just 16 points from 11 games this season, leaving them 14th in the standings.

Adelaide Crows will eye another league win after defeating West Coast Eagles last weekend, 137-38. However, the prior games to that win saw this side lose just one, a four-run defeat to the Collingwood Magpies, which ended 78-74. However, Adelaide Crows played Brisbane Lions to draw in that run, a 90-90 encounter. Moreover, this team did well in securing 78-48 and 81-138 wins over Port Adelaide Power and North Melbourne Kangaroos. This season, Adelaide Crows have picked up 18 points from 11 matches, leaving them 12th in the standings.

These are two inconsistent teams that need to improve, especially against the toughest sides. However, Adelaide Crows edge here, looking at the team they have and the sides they have lost to. Regardless, I feel picking points in the first option will be a great one, looking at how many runs we saw from the two sides last weekend.
