A-League Round 25 Predictions
—
Melbourne City vs Brisbane Roar
Melbourne City ($1.50)
Brisbane Roar ($8.00)
Draw ($4.80)
Two sides heading in very different directions this term meet here, as Melbourne City host Brisbane Roar.
City have clicked into gear when it mattered this term and are looking to challenge at the sharp end of the table, with the post-season looming large.
Brisbane Roar meanwhile are plugging away in the A-League but remain in 12th place, with only goal difference separating themselves and Perth Glory at the bottom of the pile.
This should be one-way traffic, with Melbourne City ready to pick up an important home triumph.
Betting tip: Melbourne City to win the match ($1.50)
Melbourne City to win 3-0
Wellington Phoenix vs Melbourne Victory
Wellington Phoenix ($5.25)
Melbourne Victory ($1.67)
Draw ($4.40)
It has been a tough campaign for Wellington Phoenix, who have never really got going and things won’t get too much easier here, as they take on Melbourne Victory.
Phoenix have seen their playoff aspirations fade over the past few weeks, but they remain a dangerous side on their day, especially at home.
Form has eluded Melbourne Victory a touch too of late, but they are in a better position, fighting for a playoff spot at the end of the campaign.
This will be cagey and tight, but Melbourne Victory need to win, and they should pick up all three points in this one.
Betting tip: Melbourne Victory to win the match ($1.67)
Melbourne Victory to win 2-1
Sydney FC vs Auckland FC
Sydney FC ($2.25)
Auckland FC ($3.00)
Draw ($3.80)
Sydney FC and Auckland FC meet in what should be an absolute cracker in New South Wales, with both sides chasing the points.
For Sydney FC, securing their top 6 spot will be key and they are very much in the mix to be playing in the playoffs come the end of the regular season.
Auckland FC meanwhile sit top of the tree and look to be saving themselves for the post-season push too.
This is perhaps a more important one for Sydney than for Auckland and a draw could well be on the cards.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.80)
1-1 Draw
Newcastle Jets vs Central Coast Mariners
Newcastle Jets ($1.94)
Central Coast Mariners ($3.80)
Draw ($4.00)
Local rivalry comes to the fore once again here, as Newcastle Jets host Central Coast Mariners in New South Wales.
Neither side is going particularly well this season, with the Newcastle Jets struggling down in 9th and they have work to do if they are to have any chance of breaking the top 6.
Central Coast meanwhile have an even poorer outlook, languishing in 11th place and the defending champions are desperately struggling for form.
This should be a super contest, with no quarter given, with the outcome seemingly very unpredictable but perhaps Newcastle will prevail at home.
Betting tip: Newcastle Jets to win the match ($1.94)
Newcastle Jets to win 2-1
Perth Glory vs Adelaide United
Perth Glory ($4.33)
Adelaide United ($1.75)
Draw ($4.00)
Things have looked desperate for Perth Glory for a while and Adelaide United won’t be in the mood to make things easier here.
Glory have languished down at the foot of the table all year and are in a real funk, both defensively and in attack and Adelaide United will make this tough for them.
United are winless in their last 5 and have seriously dropped off the pace in the A-League table but this feels like the perfect chance to bounce back on paper.
Adelaide United need a win to enhance their playoff hopes and they should get one here.
Betting tip: Adelaide United to win the match ($1.75)
Adelaide United to win 3-1
Western Sydney Wanderers vs Western United
Western Sydney Wanderers ($2.20)
Western United ($3.00)
Draw ($4.00)
Two of the in-form sides in the division meet here, as Western Sydney Wanderers take on Western United.
WSW are going along nicely in 4th and look to have timed their playoff run to perfection, something they have struggled with in previous campaigns.
Western United meanwhile are flying, sat in 2nd place and breathing down the necks of Auckland FC above them.
This should be a great contest, with both sides full of confidence and a draw feels like the likely outcome.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($4.00)
Newcastle Jets to win 3-1
