Auckland FC vs Melbourne Victory Prediction & Betting Tips - A-League
by Thobelani Moyo in Football Predictions
Auckland FC are aiming to make it two wins on the bounce in the A-League as they welcome Melbourne Victory to Go Media Stadium in the 11th round. Auckland FC leads at the top with a four-point cushion and is three places ahead of Melbourne Victory. Let's head straight to the match prediction.
Auckland FC cemented their lead atop the A-League table following a 4-1 away thrashing of defending champions Central Coast Mariners on Saturday.
The Black Knights find themselves in fine fettle at the moment as they have now won seven of their nine league games this season while recording one draw and a solitary loss during this period.
On familiar territory, Steve Corica's men were on a four-match winning streak before their defeat against Western United. However, 12 points accumulated from a possible 15 is an indication of a consistent form.
Melbourne Victory, on the other hand, saw their plans of returning to winning ways derailed as Zinédine Machach's sending-off in the 16th minute saw them succumb to a convincing 3-0 defeat against Sydney FC.
The Big V head into this clash winless in their last two league matches, but their record in nine games this season has been promising (W5, D2, L2).
Away from home, their form has been a rollercoaster with two wins, two losses and a solitary loss recorded in five games.

Our Auckland FC vs Melbourne Victory Prediction
Auckland FC has been a juggernaut at home this season and will be a formidable opponent to overcome as they aim to stretch their winning run to two matches.
Melbourne Victory has been behind unconvincing performances away from home, and that alone could dampen their chances of returning to the win column. This will mark the first meeting between these two sides in the A-League, and while we feel the hosts will be able to secure a narrow victory, a high-scoring affair can't be ruled out on Wednesday. Our Auckland FC v Melbourne Victory prediction is for over 2.5 goals.
