St Kilda (9-12) and Geelong (14-7) will lock horns on Saturday night at Marvel Stadium in AFL round 23.
St Kilda appears set to conclude a noisy season on a positive note, having secured four victories in their last six matches. The club's performance has been a mixed bag, oscillating between commanding wins and significant defeats. Although the Saints are already out of the finals race, they have an opportunity to make a statement for the upcoming season by breaking a dismal streak against Geelong, where they have managed only three wins in their last 17 encounters. A victory in this match could provide a much-needed boost in confidence as they look to build momentum heading into the off-season.
Geelong have successfully turned their season around after a mid-season slump, now enjoying six wins in their last seven matches, which has put their double chance back in their own hands. Although the Cats are heading to unfamiliar territory with their first visit to this venue this season, they remain optimistic about securing a top-four finish, especially with matches against St Kilda and West Coast still on the horizon.

St Kilda vs Geelong Cats team news & lineups
Mattaes Phillipou missed the Saints' recent clash against the Tigers, but he is set to return and be available for selection this week. Meanwhile, Marcus Windhager could also be in the mix if he successfully passes a late-week fitness test on his hamstring.
Geelong midfielder Tanner Bruhn will be sidelined for the upcoming match against St Kilda as he undergoes concussion protocols following a recent injury. The young talent will be sorely missed as the Cats look to maintain their momentum in the league.
