What it means for Adelaide: The eighth-placed Crows (6-5) are just keeping their head above water in the finals race, but a win over a genuine premiership contender would be a massive statement.
What it means for Greater Western Sydney: The second-placed Giants (8-3) are rolling nicely on the back of three straight wins. The Crows would be their most significant scalp since knocking off Geelong in round four.
The stat: The Crows have won eight of the 11 meetings between the two clubs, but the Giants won both of the encounters last year. The Giants also went a perfect two from two at Adelaide Oval in 2018, and have a 3-5 record overall at the venue.
The match-up: Daniel Talia v Jeremy Cameron
Talia – the Crows’ premier key defender in the Official AFL Player Ratings - faces one of his biggest challenges of the season. Cameron – the Giants’ best forward - has been in unstoppable form, leading the Coleman Medal race with 38 goals.
It’s a big week for: Bryce Gibbs
The Crows midfielder could get a tagging role for a second straight week, this time running with Giants star Stephen Coniglio. Gibbs did a great negating role on Clayton Oliver in the second half of last week's comeback win against Melbourne.

Big call: Harry Himmelberg to kick five goals
Prediction: Giants by 18 points
