A-League Round 13 Predictions
—
Melbourne Victory vs Western United
Melbourne Victory ($1.80)
Western United ($4.33)
Draw ($4.20)
Two sides sitting comfortably inside the top 6 meet here, as Melbourne Victory take on Western United.
Victory are winless in their last 4 games but their strong start to the season has afforded them this blip and they will want to bounce back here.
Western United meanwhile saw their 5 game unbeaten streak come to an end at the hands of Melbourne City last time out and a response is needed.
This will be tight, with neither side ready to give an inch but Melbourne Victory should get the job done here at home.
Betting tip: Melbourne Victory to win the match ($1.80)
Melbourne Victory to win 2-1
Wellington Phoenix vs Adelaide United
Wellington Phoenix ($3.20)
Adelaide United ($2.15)
Draw ($3.80)
High flying Adelaide United have a tricky looking trip on their hands, as they travel to New Zealand to take on Wellington Phoenix.
The Kiwis have struggled this term, failing to build upon their excellent campaign last time out and find themselves down in 10th place as a result.
Adelaide meanwhile are scaling the heights of 3rd place this term and they look to have the squad to mount a decent playoff push this term.
Despite their differing league positions, this will be tight and backing a draw could be the way to go.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.80)
1-1 Draw
Melbourne City vs Brisbane Roar
Melbourne City ($1.45)
Brisbane Roar ($7.25)
Draw ($5.00)
In-form Melbourne City will be looking to kick on here, as they take on bottom side Brisbane Roar at home.
City started the campaign slowly but look to have found another gear over the festive period and they should be ready to rock here.
Things are going from bad to worse for Brisbane, who continue to plug away at the foot of the table and there are very few crumbs of comfort for them in this one.
This could be an absolute thumping, with Melbourne City ready to rack up a decent score in this one.
Betting tip: Melbourne City to win the match ($1.45)
Melbourne City to win 4-0
Sydney FC vs Central Coast Mariners
Sydney FC ($1.63)
Central Coast Mariners ($5.00)
Draw ($4.50)
Inconsistency continues to blight the hopes of both Sydney FC and Central Coast this term and they meet once again here.
Sydney have faltered in recent games and find themselves out of the playoff picture as a result, with work to do if they are to claw their way back into the top 6.
Defending champions Central Coast have been way off the pace this term but a win at Brisbane Roar last time out should give them a boost.
The odds look way off the pace here and this could well be an entertaining draw.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($4.50)
2-2 Draw
Perth Glory vs Auckland FC
Perth Glory ($8.50)
Auckland FC ($1.33)
Draw ($5.80)
With just one win on the card so far, Perth Glory will not be looking forward to taking on league leaders Auckland FC.
Glory have seriously struggled to cope with the demands of A-League football again this term and they look to be way off the pace currently.
The exact opposite can be said of new boys Auckland FC, who are blazing a trail at the top of the table and people are asking if they can be caught already.
This should be one-way traffic, with Auckland FC ready to pick up three more points on their travels.
Betting tip: Auckland FC to win the match ($1.33)
Auckland FC to win 3-0
Newcastle Jets vs Macarthur FC
Newcastle Jets ($3.00)
Macarthur FC ($2.30)
Draw ($4.00)
Macarthur FC will be looking to get back to winning ways here, as they travel to the Newcastle Jets.
Hosts Newcastle are seriously struggling this term, languishing down in 11th place but they have picked up a couple of decent results this term.
Macarthur FC meanwhile are clinging on to their playoff spot and a top 6 finish looks to be within their reach this term.
This will be a good watch for the neutral, with Macarthur FC perhaps most likely to prevail.
Betting tip: Macarthur FC to win the match ($2.30)
Macarthur FC to win 2-1
