Auckland FC vs Central Coast Mariners Prediction & Betting Tips - A-League
by Devesh Jaganath in A-League Predictions
Auckland FC will be out to extend their lead in the A-League when they play host to Central Coast Mariners at the Go Media Stadium on Sunday. The Black Knights are at the summit of the league standings, while the Mariners are 10th. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Auckland are enjoying a sensational first season in the A-League but will want to get back in the win column after consecutive draws against Adelaide United and Newcastle Jets in their last two games.
Still, the Black Knights are unbeaten in their last eight league matches (W5 D3 L0), and have only suffered two defeats in 19 games this season.
The hosts have also avoided defeat in their last five home games (W3 D2 L0) and scored a combined tally of 15 goals in their last four at Go Media Stadium alone.
Meanwhile, the Central Coast Mariners are having a dismal title defence, currently 20 points off the league leaders, while having only managed a mere four league wins in 20 games to date.
The Yellow & Navy lost their last match 3-0 on the road to Melbourne Victory, marking their fifth consecutive loss across all competition and ninth game in succession without a win (W5 D4 L0).
Interestingly, the visitors have performed slightly better on the road than at home this season, with 14 of their 21 points coming in away matches (W3 D5 L2).

Our Auckland FC vs Central Coast Mariners Prediction
Auckland are having a dream first season in the top flight and were far too good for this opponent in the reverse fixture back in December when they came out as 4-1 victors.
The Mariners are enduring a massive fall from grace this season, and it isn't getting much better, with the side winless in their last seven league games while conceding two goals or more in five of those matches. Our Auckland vs Central Coast Mariners prediction is over 2.5.
