Command Analysis

Melbourne City FC

Melbourne City is the current champion of the Australian A-League. Currently, the team is far from the strongest in the championship and occupies only the sixth place in the standings, ahead of Adelaide United in additional indicators. At the same time, the hosts are only two points behind the third place. At the same time, the gap from the leaders is already much more significant - Auckland is ahead of today's opponent by seven points.

Auckland FC

Auckland leads the A-League standings and plans to win the regular season again. The team is two points ahead of its closest pursuer, Sydney. In the last round, the team from New Zealand scored an away victory over Brisbane Roar (2-0), which was in third place at that time. They had previously failed to beat Newcastle Jets (1-3) and MacArthur (1-1).

Tip and bets

TipHandicap (0) on Auckland

1.95

After two matches without a win, Auckland managed to win, which should give the New Zealanders confidence before the match with the reigning champion. At the same time, the hosts won only one match out of six, although the club played all these matches on its own field. We think that the team from Melbourne will not be able to beat the championship leader.

Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (0) for Auckland in 1.95
