The Bombers will be raring to go against a fired-up Melbourne side, when the two teams meet at the MCG on Friday night.
After a week off with the bye, Essendon will be looking to redeem themselves after a disappointing 16-point loss to Richmond in Round 9.
The last time the two sides met, Round 15 2010, the Demons over-powered the Bombers 19.8 (122) to 14.19 (103).
