The Magpies hold a big advantage in the head-to-head ledger - 26 wins to 15 - but the Crows have won three of the past five matches

The two sides drew in Round 19, 2017 thanks to a Mitch McGovern goal after the siren.

Early in the third quarter of the match, Adelaide trailed by as much as 50 points before mounting a comeback.

Collingwood are one of only two teams the Crows have recorded a draw against (the other being St Kilda).
