Preview:
The rivalry between Geelong and Hawthorn is one of the fiercest in the AFL and there is still no love lost between these two sides.
Geelong returned to winning form with a professional win over St Kilda last weekend and they will start this clash as clear favourites.
The Cats have won ten of their past 11 games as home favourites for a clear profit and they are 8-3 against the line in this scenario.
Hawthorn have found some form in recent weeks and they head into this game on the back of a pair of impressive wins over Collingwood and Fremantle.
The Hawks have generally been a predictable betting side this season – they have won as favourites and failed to get the job done as underdogs.
Hawthorn have covered the line in only five of their past 13 games as underdogs and it would not surprise to see Geelong flex their muscles against their rivals this weekend.
