Who should you be tipping in Round 13 of the AFL season? Our footy experts have put their heads together to help you out. So open your ESPN Footytips app, take notes, and get ahead of the game!
The round begins on Thursday night at Marvel Stadium, where Hawthorn will be looking to find their 'Hollywood' form against a strong Western Bulldogs outfit, rested from their week off. Can the Hawks find their mojo? Or will the Dogs further contribute to their slide?
On Friday, fans are treated to what looks to be a finals rehearsal at Adelaide Oval when the Crows and Lions square off. Adelaide is coming off a very convincing win over the Swans, while Brisbane just scraped home against the Bombers and face another challenge here.
Round 13 also features a clash between Richmond and Sydney at the MCG. Can a 90-point loss at home the week before motivate the Swans enough to get a win over a young Tigers outfit, or, to quote Wayne Milera, will they still be a "bit of a rabble" on game day?
Our experts share all of their wisdom with you to help guide your tipping.

Certainty and why: This might be the toughest week of the season to be 'certain' of any tip, but I'm expecting Collingwood to be too good for Melbourne.
Upset and why: Richmond should have beaten the Giants last week and on form should be able to compete with the Swans. A win at the 'G wouldn't shock.
