CARLTON will return to Marvel Stadium with a point to prove when they take on the Saints on Sunday.

Here is everything you need to know about the Blues’ Round 10 opponent.

OVERVIEW:

Ladder position: 13th

Won: 4

Lost: 5

Form: WLLLL

Average points for: 75

Average points against: 83.8 

The Blues will be counting down the days until they get their chance on the big stage, with the learnings from last weekend’s loss to the Giants still front of mind.

Equally desperate for their next win, the Saints will be eager to turn their season around following a four-game losing streak.

Carlton maintains an impressive record against the Saints, notching 162 wins over this weekend’s opponent across 219 meetings.

It will be an evenly match contest when these two sides face off in the centre at Marvel Stadium. While the Blues outrank St Kilda in clearances, the Saints’ tackle pressure could cause them headaches around the ground.

One of the more interesting comparisons to come from the match will be of the opposing key forwards. Harry McKay and Tim Membrey will race to hit the scoreboard for their respective sides after impressing so far in 2019.
