A-League Round 24 Predictions

—

Brisbane Roar vs Macarthur FC

Brisbane Roar ($2.38)

Macarthur FC ($2.90)

Draw ($3.60)

It has been a season to forget for Brisbane Roar, languishing at the foot of the table but they have a chance to salvage some pride here against Macarthur FC.

Roar have struggled for goals and to keep clean sheets too, with a big winter rebuild seemingly needed for the club.

Macarthur FC meanwhile have huffed and puffed at times this season and a few poor results of late have left them with work to do if they are to sneak into the playoff picture.

This will be a cagey one, but Macarthur FC need three points, and they should manage to get them here.

Auckland FC vs Western Sydney Wanderers

Auckland FC ($2.00)

Western Sydney Wanderers ($3.60)

Draw ($3.90)

Table topping Auckland FC look well placed to press home their A-League title aspirations and they will want to keep momentum ticking over here against Western Sydney Wanderers.

The quality and consistency demonstrated by Auckland FC in recent weeks has surprised plenty and they are showing no sign of dropping off at this late stage in the campaign.

Western Sydney Wanderers meanwhile are going along nicely, unbeaten in their last 5 games and sat comfortably in the playoff picture.

This should be a very good game, between two sides full of confidence but Auckland FC could prevail at home.

Melbourne City vs Central Coast Mariners

Melbourne City ($1.45)

Central Coast Mariners ($8.00)

Draw ($4.75)

Melbourne City have been clicking into gear at the most important stage of the season, and they will see this one against Central Coast Mariners as a big opportunity.

City didn’t show too much form at the start of the season but are now going along very nicely indeed, with the playoffs very much within reach for them.

Central Coast meanwhile haven’t been able to defend their title with too much quality this term and are down in the bottom half of the table as a result.

This should be closer than the odds suggest but confidence and momentum is with Melbourne City, and they should come out on top.

Western United vs Perth Glory

Western United ($1.33)

Perth Glory ($8.00)

Draw ($4.10)

High-flying Western United take on lowly Perth Glory here, as both sides chase precious points for very different reasons.

United sit 2^nd in the table, have won their last 4 and they look to be timing their run to perfection at the sharp end of the season.

Perth Glory meanwhile have struggled again this season, but recent performances and results have been particularly dire, with a scrap with Brisbane Roar on their hands to avoid the wooden spoon.

This should be one-way traffic, with Western United ready to take another big step towards finding top form for the playoffs.

Adelaide United vs Sydney FC

Adelaide United ($2.30)

Sydney FC ($2.75)

Draw ($4.10)

A huge game in the race to finish in the top 6 is on the agenda here in South Australia, as Adelaide United take on Sydney FC.

United are winless in their last 5 games and their drop off in form has been magnified by the improvements made by teams around them and they are clinging on to a playoff spot.

Sydney FC meanwhile are also faltering, with just one win from their last 5 played and they sit 7^th, one place behind Adelaide here.

This is a six-pointer, which both sides know they can’t afford to lose, and this one could end up being a draw.

Newcastle Jets vs Wellington Phoenix

Newcastle Jets ($1.77)

Wellington Phoenix ($4.40)

Draw ($4.10)

Two sides out of the playoff picture as things stand meet here, as the Newcastle Jets take on Wellington Phoenix.

Jets have improved exponentially over the past few months, climbing away from wooden spoon contention and they will want to kick on for the playoffs here.

Wellington Phoenix meanwhile are stuck in a bit of a funk, winless in their last 5 and they do look to be a touch short of confidence as a group.

This should be a very good one, with both sides capable of picking up a result but Newcastle should come out on top here.

Betting tip: Newcastle Jets to win the match ($1.77)

Newcastle Jets to win 3-1
