Our record in South Australia is worse then Victoria…

I'm feeling surprisingly excited about this one. I've been watching old highlights and random football content all week even (which is unlike me).

The late night matches in Victoria always give me some dread, but away to Adelaide (despite them having a cool stadium, and passionate fans) doesn't hold the same feeling. 

Adelaides defence has been rubbish lately so I'm sure we will score goals - the key will be shutting down Goodwin (and Irankunda I guess, given the hype) so we conceed less. Goodwin's had a long season (played the WC break of course) and hasn't looked as sharp lately in the Adelaide games I've watched. I'm picking 3-1 to us with a huge team effort and Sail MOTM.
Are you sure about our record in Adelaide been worse? I had a quick look on https://www.ultimatealeague.com/ and we have a bad record vs Adelaide at Coopers (16/72 possible points, 4W 4D 16L) but a terrible and even worse one vs City/Victory/Western away (didn't work out exact numbers, but at a glance it looks like a clearly lower ppg) when filtering by AAMI/Marvel/Mooshead/Mars. At AAMI/Marvel combined for example we only have 3 wins in 43 matches!

TL;DR: Our record in Adelaide is better than Vic, reasons to be positive!
