Command Analysis

Wellington Phoenix

Current form
Wellington Phoenix had a disappointing season and for the first time in a long time could not compete for a place in the playoffs. The team took only 11th place out of 13, ahead of only the obvious outsiders, Perth Glory and Brisbane Roar. In recent rounds, the New Zealand representative performed extremely poorly, not scoring a single point in four matches. Giancarlo Italiano's last two matches ended with defeats against Brisbane Roar (0:1) and Perth Glory (0:2). Now we have to play with the team from Brisbane again, this time for reaching the main stage of the cup.
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts have no problems with the squad on the eve of the cup match.
Interesting betting trends
- None of the last five matches of the nominal hosts ended in a draw.
- The team has not scored a single goal in the last two matches.
Approximate line-up: Oluwayemi - Sutton, Wootton, Hughes, Piper-Rufer-Ishige, Kelly, Nagasawa, Brooke-Smith-Barbarouses

Brisbane Roar FC

Current form
Brisbane Roar lost their chances for the A-League playoffs a long time ago and finished the season without any special tasks. It was in the last matches of the season that the guests managed to achieve good results - the team won three times and drew once in the last four rounds. We also managed to beat Wellington Phoenix (1-0), which we will face in the cup. In the first half of the championship, it seemed that the Brisbane team would definitely take the last place, but in the end, Ruben Zadkovich's team overtook Perth Glory and were only three points behind today's opponent.

1.56Tip and bets
The hosts finished the A-League season above the guests, but the New Zealanders frankly failed the championship final, and the team from Brisbane just showed great football. If the Orange team continues to play like this in the cup, they will definitely be able to knock their opponent out of the tournament. We will give preference to nominal guests.
Our prediction is a 1.77 Brisbane Roar win.
Bet on the total
Today's opponents are united by poor defensive play. Even in successful matches, clubs often make mistakes at their own gates. Teams try to compensate for their shortcomings with an active game in attack, which does not always work out. Most likely, the duel between such opponents will be spectacular.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals in 1.60
The first half bet
We do not expect that the opponents will move forward with great strength immediately after the kickoff. It will obviously take time to take a closer look at each other. In this scenario, a draw is likely based on the results of the first half.
Our betting tip is a draw in the first half at 1.90
