Marvel Stadium will host the afternoon encounter between Collingwood Magpies (4-3-1) and West Coast Eagles (2-6) in the Australian Football League this Saturday.

A stellar performance from Nick Daicos led the Magpies to a thrilling 79-85 victory over the Carlton Blues last weekend.

With that victory, Collingwood maintained their excellent form, making it four wins from their last five games. The Pies have picked up 18 points after eight rounds this season, placing them ninth in the rankings.

West Coast Eagles, meanwhile, suffered their second successive defeat last weekend against the Essendon Bombers, going down 71-77 at home despite putting on a resilient showing.

However, in their previous five games the Eagles have lost three, with the other two losses coming against the Sydney Swans and the Gold Coast Suns. West Coast currently sit in 16th place, having collected eight points in as many games.

Collingwood Magpies team news

Collingwood will be without the services of Jordan De Goey (groin) and Tom Mitchell (appendix) for another week, but both midfielders are expected to be available by round 10. Brody Mihocek could miss as many as three games with a hamstring strain. Beau McCreery, meanwhile, has entered concussion protocols, while Jiath picked up a syndesmosis issue in the VFL.

West Coast team news

West Coast fought hard in their narrow loss to Essendon and appear to be finding some consistency as a competent side as each week passes. Just as it seemed he had overcome injuries troubles, Elliot Yeo picked up a groin issue and is likely to miss time on the sideline. The in-form Jake Waterman suffered delayed concussion after the game and will subsequently miss the Sunday clash, while Noah Long looks to have sustained a serious knee injury.
