Central Coast Mariners vs Western Sydney Wanderers Betting Tips

Central Coast Mariners began their season is style, beating Perth Glory 3-2 in the opening game of the season.

But they haven’t been on the right side of the scoreline since then, losing four and drawing two of their last six Hyundai A-League matches.

The problem lies in defence for Central Coast Mariners. They have managed to score nine goals in their opening seven games and haven’t failed to score in any of them. But they have conceded 14 at the other end.

This leaves them down in 8^th position with a measly tally of five points. A win could move them closer to Wellington Phoenix in 7^th, but a loss could see them slip to the foot of the table.

Western Sydney Wanderers have no such concerns. They sit in 3^rd position in the A-League, and a win on Sunday could send them to the top of the table.

They began their season poorly, failing to win any of their first three league games and losing twice. But their form has taken a turn for the better since then.

Western Sydney Wanderers come into this match on the back of a four match winning streak where they have averaged two goals per game and only conceded twice. They could have fun against the leaky Central Coast Mariners’ defence.

Central Coast Mariners have won two of the last five meetings between these sides, with two goalless draws being played out and Western Sydney Wanderers getting a victory once. I think Western Sydney Wanderers have an excellent chance to level the scores in this meeting.

Considering both sides decent attacking form this season I think odds of 4/6 for Both Teams to Score look good value for money, and I’m also backing Western Sydney Wanderers to win 3-1 at 14/1.
