At Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne Demons will play Collingwood Magpies in round 24 of the Australian Football League. The previous week, the two teams secured a win. Which side will keep things running?
The Melbourne Demons ended a run of poor results with a road win over the Gold Coast Suns the previous weekend. In a game that ended 63-117, Melbourne Demons were tied 20-20 in the first quarter but then stepped up in other quarters, particularly with a 9-46 win in the fourth quarter. Heading into this game, Melbourne Demons will look to win their second game in 6th game as they continue to move close to the playoffs spot. 
The Collingwood Magpies returned to winning ways the previous weekend against Brisbane Lions. In a game that ended with 79-78 scores, Collingwood Magpies needed a 20-1 and 29-14 win in the 2nd and 4th quarters, after a very slow 1st quarter that saw them lose 16-40 to win at the end. In the meantime, the Collingwood Magpies have won three of their last four matches, the lone loss coming against the Sydney Swans.
The Melbourne Demons did well last weekend, showing the side we saw from the previous years. In the meantime, the Collingwood Magpies have been very good in the previous weeks, and we can expect more from them in this one. In the meantime, I feel the Melbourne Demons at home still have much to offer following their performance last weekend, and I will trust them here. Also, with the Collingwood Magpies getting very close in each of their previous matches, we can expect this match to end with many points.
