THE PREDICTION

Geelong Cats and Melbourne lock horns in this contest between the top two teams in the AFL. The pair meet in what should be a thrilling contest that could go either way owing to the form they have shown all season with just four points separating the two at the top of the ladder. The Cats have won their last six after blitzing North Melbourne last week while the Demons made it back-to-back wins as they overcame Adelaide Crows. The Demons have won the past three matchups between the two teams so the reigning champions will fancy their chances of extending that run but the recent performances of the Cats cannot be ignored so they are the tentative pick here, although whichever side prevails should do so by 1-39 points.
