The prediction

Geelong got their 2025 campaign heading in the right direction with a three-point win over flag favourites Collingwood at the MCG. After their disappointing performance against Carlton a week prior this was more like what Coach Scott was asking of his players.

The GWS Giants went down by 14 points to the crosstown rival, the Sydney Swans at the SCG. They now face the long road trip to Geelong to play a revitalised cats team fresh off a thrilling victory in round eight. This is their fourth straight game away from their true “Western Sydney” home and their recent record at the Cattery is sound; winning their past two, albeit both games being decided by one kick or less.

In fact, the Giants have enjoyed sustained success over the Cats, winning five of their past seven encounters. Key ball winners Lachie Whitfield and Tom Green remain near the top of the league leaders in disposals while the Cats will again look to their veteran forward tandem of Patrick Dangerfield and Jeremy Cameron to kick them to another victory.

These games have traditionally been low scoring of late and we think another of those type games is on the cards again this week.

Geelong vs GWS Giants tip: Total match points scored under 174.5
