Goodwin (shin soreness) and Bassett (shoulder) have yet to play for the Crows during the pre-season, but the duo will boost an already-strong Adelaide squad. The Crows have also recalled Hayden Skipworth and Jason Porplyzia.
Skipworth injured his calf against Hawthorn in a second-round NAB Cup clash in Launceston, while Porplyzia (quad) has not played since the opening round against Port Adelaide.
Adelaide will again be without skipper Mark Ricciuto - who has not featured during the Crows' NAB Cup campaign - due to a hamstring injury.
Nathan Bock (back), Ben Hudson (knee), Scott Welsh (leg stress fracture) and Jason Torney (quad) remain on the sidelines.
Geelong has rushed big men Brad Ottens and Henry Playfair into its side, as the Cats attempt to win their first silverware of any kind since 1963.
Ottens and Playfair have both battled groin injuries, yet the pair featured in Geelong's VFL side last weekend.
But Geelong skipper Steven King has not been able to overcome an achilles injury in time and he will miss the grand final.
The Cats will also be without Tom Harley (hip), Steve Johnson (ankle), Peter Riccardi (hamstring), Kent Kingsley (hamstring) and David Wojcinski (knee). Geelong has added Andrew Mackie and Jarad Rooke to its squad.
