Where and when: Adelaide Oval, Saturday, July 6, 4.05pm ACST
What it means for Adelaide: It's a chance for the Crows to stay in touch with the top four, while putting themselves two games clear of the Power in the race towards the finals.
What it means for Port Adelaide: Hurting after last weekend's shock loss to the Western Bulldogs, Showdown 47 carries extra weight for the Power, with tough games against Brisbane, Richmond and Greater Western Sydney in the next month.
The stat: The Crows have won seven of the past eight encounters to take an overall lead of 24-22 in the 46 meetings between the two South Australian clubs.
The match-up: Daniel Talia v Charlie Dixon
Talia is the Crows' No.1 key defender in the Official AFL Player Ratings (176th overall), up against Dixon, the Power's premier key forward (198th). Dixon is returning to his best ahead of his third game back from missing 10 months with a badly broken leg.
It’s a big week for: Ken Hinkley
The Power coach publicly called his side out after last weekend's loss to the Bulldogs, labelling it untrustworthy and unreliable. Hinkley will be demanding a torrid response against the cross-town rival, with the Power's season hanging in the balance.
Big call: Robbie Gray boots three goals in the last quarter to drag the desperate Power over the line in a Showdown classic.
