Richmond Tigers vs Port Adelaide Predictions


Richmond were consigned to the tightest of defeats in their last match as they fell to a 71-70 loss at the hands of the Essendon Bombers to see their two-game winning run brought to an end. It brought Damien Hardwick's spell in charge to an end.

Port Adelaide were able to make it seven wins on the bounce as they edged past the Melbourne Demons in an enthralling 80-76 win in their last game and are tipped here again.

Head to Head


The Tigers have won the last two matches between the sides including a comfortable 109-71 win in 2022. In their last 10, the Tigers have won seven times, while the Power have snared three wins. 

Richmond Tigers Form 


The Tigers seemed to be edging towards some semblance of good form at the start of May as they downed both the West Coast Eagles and Geelong Cats to make it two victories in a row. 

However, they saw a third win in a row snatched from them as the Essendon Bombers edged to a tight 71-70 victory that means the Tigers are back to square one. 

The latest defeat prompted long-standing coach Damien Hardwick to call time on his spell in charge of the Tigers.


Richmond Tigers Team News


Nick Vlastuin has been named this week despite injury concerns. Tylar Young has been named on an extended bench and could potentially be a late replacement.

Port Adelaide Form 


Port Adelaide have been the team to beat at the moment, with the Power notching their seventh win in a row as they beat the Melbourne Demons 80-76 in an enthralling match. 

This victory has seen the Power move up to third on the ladder as they look to keep the pressure on Collingwood at the summit.

Verdict

While I do believe the Power will get another win, I expect it to be a tight battle as the Tigers won two in a row at home before their loss to the Bombers.
