We are about to witness another mid-table encounter on Friday when Adelaide United faces Melbourne Victory. The season in A-League is far from over, so all the teams have more time to achieve their goals.
Adelaide United are sitting 7th with 15 points and a game in hand, which could help them surpass their opponents in the next few rounds. The Reds’ winning percentage (42%) is higher than Melbourne Victory (31%), but they are still 1 spot behind them.
In terms of current form, things are looking OK for Adelaide. Gertjan Verbeek boys have gathered 9 points from their most recent 5 home games. A worrying fact is that 2 of the last 3 matches on home soil were lost, but even in those cases the team managed to score 3 times.
In total, in the last 5 games at Coopers Stadium, the Reds scored 9 goals and conceded 7, which is a promising form for a mid-table team.
Melbourne Victory FC are finding themselves 1 place over Adelaide, but the only reason is that the team has conceded 1 goal less in total compared to the Reds.
Apart from that, the team is in a very bad situation in terms of visits. The Boys in Blue were able to win only 3 points in the last 5 times they played away from home. The positive thing is that this win came against the city rivals of Melbourne City. However, Sydney FC, Adelaide United, Western United and Central Coast Mariners were all able to get the 3 points away from them.
As we already mentioned, the last encounter between the teams ended with a 3-1 home victory for Adelaide United. Adelaide United is also the team with the highest number of goals per match, which makes us think BTTS could land easily here again.
Prediction – BTTS: YES
Happy Betting 🙂
