In the penultimate match of the 26th round of the A-League, Western Sydney Wanderers will play at home against Melbourne City. The match forecast and betting odds for these teams have been prepared by DailySports analysts.
Western Sydney Wanderers
Western Sydney Wanderers currently occupy the sixth position in the regular season standings, just two rounds away from the finish. This is the last position that allows entry into the playoffs. The Wanderers are only one point ahead of the seventh-placed Melbourne City. Therefore, we are in for a classic "six-point match." Western Sydney approaches this match with a series of 2 consecutive losses. In the previous round, Western Sydney lost in the Sydney Derby 1-2, and before that, they were defeated by Brisbane 1-2.
Melbourne City
Melbourne City is the most unpredictable team in the A-League. City has a goal difference of +10 but has not yet secured a playoff spot. In the previous round, Melbourne achieved an incredible 8-0 victory over Perth Glory. However, it's worth noting that not long ago, Melbourne City lost to the same Perth Glory 1-5. It's incredibly difficult to predict what kind of football this team will play. Before the 8-0 victory, Melbourne City had suffered 2 consecutive losses.
