Western Sydney Wanderers vs Auckland FC Prediction & Betting Tips - A-League
by Devesh Jaganath in Football Predictions
The final fixture of matchday 16 in the A-League will come from CommBank Stadium where Western Sydney Wanderers will be playing host to Auckland on Sunday. WSW are eighth in the league standings while the Black Knights are second. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Western Sydney Wanderers have made a mixed start to the campaign, currently on 18 points after 13 games with a record of five wins, three draws and five defeats to date.
Last time out, WSW were beaten 3-1 by Central Coast Mariners, which was the fourth time in the last five games that they conceded two or more goals. The 26 goals they’ve shipped this term is the most of any club in the division barring the bottom two.
The hosts have taken seven points from a possible 21 at home this season, and are now aiming to avoid a third straight defeat at CommBank Stadium.
Meanwhile, Auckland have made an incredible start to life in the Australian top flight, currently on 27 points and trailing league-leading Adelaide United by just a single point.
The Black Knights were held to a 2-2 draw by the league leaders last time out. They have still only lost two games in the league this season (W8 D3 L2).
The visitors have played six away games this season and have a record of three wins, two draws and one loss. They have also scored two or more goals in four of those matches.
