The third-placed Swans have turned around a 1-3 start to the season with an impressive nine-game winning streak, including three straight at the SCG.
But GWS is also in top form, putting together back-to-back victories for the first time in its short history over the past fortnight.
One winning run will come to an end in front of what promises to be another huge crowd at the redeveloped ground.
