Auckland FC will look to take a step closer to the A-League title this weekend when they play host to Western Sydney Wanderers at the Go Media Stadium on Saturday. The Black Knights lead the league standings with 45 points, while the Wanderers are in fifth place with 35 points after 21 games. To the match prediction!
Auckland FC maintained their seven-point lead at the summit of the league table last week when they returned from the international break with a 2-0 win over Brisbane Roar on the road.
That result extended the Black Knights' incredible unbeaten run in the top flight to 10 matches (W 6 D4 L0) - they scored two or more goals in eight games during this period.
The hosts have also been excellent at home in their first top-flight season, unbeaten in six games, while they’ve only tasted defeat once in 11 games at Go Media Stadium (W7 D3 L1).
Meanwhile, Western Sydney Wanderers are making a late surge up the table but fell three points behind second-placed Western United after a 2-2 draw against Wellington Phoenix last week.
Still, the Wanderers are unbeaten in their last seven league games since the end of January (W5 D2 L0), and scored two or more goals in all but one of those matches.
Notably, the visitors have been better on the road than at home this season, taking 19 points from their 10 away games, while currently riding an eight-match unbeaten run (W5 D3 L0).

Our Auckland FC vs Western Sydney Wanderers Prediction
Both these sides are in need of all three points here, albeit for different reasons, so it’s fair to suggest that we should see plenty of attacking play at both ends of the field given the form they are in.
Auckland have been excellent at home this season, but the Wanderers have picked up the bulk of their points on the road and are the highest-scoring team in the top flight this term. Therefore, our Auckland vs Western Sydney Wanderers prediction is both teams to score.
