St Kilda has made one change to its side ahead its clash with Adelaide on Saturday night, with Josh Battle set to make his AFL return.

The forward-turned-defender has missed the past three weeks with a knee injury but returns to the side in place of injured utility Blake Acres.

Acres will miss Round 20 with a shoulder injury he sustained last weekend.

Matthew Parker, Daniel McKenzie, Darragh Joyce and Jonathon Marsh have been named as the emergencies.
