LiontipsCentral Coast Mariners vs Melbourne Victory. Prediction (odds 3.35) and bets on the Australian Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
In addition to being the defending champions, the Central Coast Mariners have also won two Grand Finals in a row. This is a unique achievement, as just a few years ago the Mariners were the underdogs of the Australian top flight. The progress is simply amazing, considering that there was no major transformation and no huge cash injections into the club.
Disqualifications and injuries
There are no injured players on the team.

Khozeyava have missed four games in a row
Estimated line-up: Pavlešić - Katlak, Mauraguis, Paul - Doka, McCalmont, Tarr, Rox - Theocharus, Brandtman - Kuol.
Current form
Melbourne Victory is one of the most famous clubs in the Australian league. At the end of September, the team suffered a disappointing defeat in the Australian Cup final, losing to MacArthur with a minimal score (0:1). This fiasco interrupted a five-match winning streak. Of course, there is a desire to start winning again. It will be very difficult to do this in the upcoming match.
Disqualifications and injuries

1.77Tip and bets
Over the past year, the teams have played four times, and in three matches, two opponents managed to score. At the start of the season, both teams have not yet reached their best form, so it is unlikely that anyone will be able to keep a clean sheet. We will bet on this event for excellent odds.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.76
Bet on the outcome
The hosts will be the favourites, but this is due to the home field factor. We are inclined to think that there will be a lot of fighting in the centre of the field and it will not be possible to determine the winner in 90 minutes of playing time.
Our prediction is a draw with odds of 3.35
Bet on corners
It is unlikely that the teams will focus on attacking actions. It is highly likely that they will rely on defense, and the clubs will not be able to make many passes from the corner flag.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.56
