The prediction

Geelong come into this one on the back of an impressive 41-point hammering of defending champions the Brisbane Lions in their most recent outing last week. That made it three victories on the bounce for the Victorians.

The Sydney Swans begin this weekend sitting at the top of ladder, just ahead of Fremantle, who are level on points with the Swans. The Swans have won nine of their ten matches, edging past Collingwood last week.

The Sydney Swans head to Victoria in fairly unconvincing form of late and, with Geelong capable of closing the gap to just four points on their opponents, backing a narrow home win may be a decent bet here.

Geelong vs Sydney tip: Geelong to win & under 190.5 points
