The 2025 AFL season's Round 20 match sees the Adelaide Crows take on Port Adelaide on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval.
Adelaide are on a four-game winning streak capped by a devastating 61‑point thrashing of Gold Coast, in which they held the Suns goalless in an entire half.
The Crows are 13-5 in the season sit third on the ladder with 52 points but they have the best points percentage (139.6%) -- scoring 39.6% more than they have conceded.
Meanwhile, Port Adelaide will hope to dent their cross-town rivals' top four hopes while they themselves are in a bit of a mixed form. The Power have lost three of their past five games and sit 11th on the ladder, three wins behind the finals spot.
