Carlton are set to take on Melbourne on Saturday in Round 19 of the 2025 AFL season at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Carlton have suffered a very slow season as they have taken just six wins so far alongside their 11 losses. Placed 12th on AFL ladder heading into Round 19, Carlton are on a four-game losing run and going up against fellow strugglers Melbourne could provide a chance to break that run.
Melbourne have had a horror season through the opening 19 rounds as they have managed to take home just five wins from 16 games. The Demons were on a run of five games without a win to their name; however, they managed to break that duck last week when they faced off against North Melbourne.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times, and the latest lineup news.
