Port Adelaide v Hawthorn
Thursday 7:20pm at Adelaide Oval



Gutted by a close loss to Geelong last Thursday, Port will be looking to lay the hammer down on a beleaguered Hawthorn.
Form
Port Adelaide followed their bye with a gutsy but ultimately fruitless performance against Geelong, going down in a heartbreaker. They have won three of their last four and have posted 110 points or more in five of nine games this season. The Power are averaging 109 points per game and have conceded 82 or fewer on six occasions in 2017 including four of their last five.
Hawthorn are up to 14th on the ladder following their monumental upset of Sydney last Friday. The Hawks pulled off a miraculous one-goal win over the Swans. Hawthorn have now won three of their last four and have not conceded more than 91 in their last four. The Hawks continue to rank bottom four in both attack and defence.

Betting Data
2017 Line: Port Adelaide 6-3, Hawthorn 3-7
2017 Over-Under: Port Adelaide 5-4, Hawthorn 2-8
What To Expect
Hawthorn pulled off a miraculous win last week but it is hard to see them doing it again against a Port team that really is a title contender. The Power are very good as a big home favourite and have a ridiculous cover rate of over 70% at night. Given Hawthorn’s recent interstate woes, the smart bet is the minus.
