Port Adelaide Power vs Hawthorn Hawks Prediction: Time for Power to extend their top play

The Australian Football League match between the Port Adelaide Power and the Hawthorn Hawks will take place at Adelaide Oval during round 12 of the competition.

The Port Adelaide Power have had an outstanding season thus far, as evidenced by the fact that they are now riding an eight-game winning streak that was just extended by a 77-67 victory over the Richmond Tigers. Port Adelaide has been performing at a high level as of late, and the club is currently in the midst of a remarkable winning streak that has propelled them to the number two spot on the AFL ladder. The Power are aware that they need to continue winning games if they want to keep the pressure on the team that is now in first place, which is Collingwood. There is currently a margin of four points between the two teams. If The Power wish to compete for the top slot, they are well aware that they are the type of squad that simply have to triumph in matches like this at home.

The Hawthorn Hawks have been in much better form as of late, winning their most recent two games in a row by defeating both the West Coast Eagles and the St. Kilda Saints. When you consider that the Eagles have only had one victory so far this year, their victory over the West Coast shouldn't come as much of a surprise. Nevertheless, their victory over the Saints, who are currently in fifth place, was a strong performance, and it will have their fans feeling that better things are on the horizon. However, the Hawks' lone victory away from home this season came against the Eagles, who were at the very bottom of the league. Prior to this victory, the Hawks had lost five straight games on the road.

I am going to put my money on the Power to come out on top in this competition. In every matchup between these two teams, with the exception of the most recent one, the victor has been decided by a margin of fewer than 40 points; therefore, I anticipate a contest that will be rather close.
