In the 19th round of the A-League regular season, the Sydney Derby is set to take place. The match prediction for these teams has been prepared by Dailysports analysts.
Western Sydney
Western Sydney, with 28 points, holds the fifth position within the playoff zone. Moreover, the gap from the seventh position is already 5 points, and Western Sydney has one match in hand. However, Marco Rudan's team is not currently in its best form. In the previous round, Western Sydney defeated Adelaide United 2:1, but prior to that, they endured a streak of 3 matches without a victory.
Sydney
Sydney sits directly below Western Sydney in the sixth position, with one point less in their tally. Like their arch-rivals, Sydney also has one match in hand. Ufuk Talay's team has been unbeaten in the last 6 A-League matches and has only suffered one defeat in their last 10 games. In the previous round, Sydney played to a 1:1 draw against Melbourne City.

It's quite rare to witness a high-scoring derby between these teams. I believe this game will be no exception, so I am placing a bet on Under 3.5 goals.
