Adelaide United
WLDWLD ⚖
In their previous game, Adelaide United drew 1-1 in the A-League tie with Central Coast Mariners.
In that game, Adelaide United had 61% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. The only player to score for Adelaide United was Luka Jovanović (10'). On the other side, Central Coast Mariners got 6 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. Sabit James Ngor (62') scored for Central Coast Mariners.
Adelaide United have been good when going forward in the lead-up to this encounter, scoring 13 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager Carl Veart will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Adelaide United have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 6 of those same games. Nonetheless, we will just have to wait and see whether that pattern might be sustained in this game.

🗞️ Team News: Western Sydney Wanderers
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just a single fitness concern for the Western Sydney Wanderers boss Alen Stajčić to be concerned with thanks to an almost full-strength set of players. Lawrence Thomas (Ankle injury) will miss out.
📋 Team News: Adelaide United
Adelaide United manager Carl Veart has to choose a team with limited availability. Jordan Elsey (unknown injury), Bart Vriends (Fitness) and Luke Duzel (Fitness) will not be playing here.
🔮 Prediction
We’re of the opinion that Western Sydney Wanderers will most probably see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.
At the other end, Adelaide United will be up against it to break down their defence but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet, too.
We’re therefore anticipating a decent 3-1 winning score for Western Sydney Wanderers at the end of the 90 minutes.
Our expert partners are tipping under 3.5 goals for this match. Check out their VIP predictions here.
