Melbourne Victory vs Sydney FC Predictions

  • Melbourne Victory sit in 9th place, below expectations but they did pick up a win last weekend.
  • Sydney FC are 10 points clear at the top of the league with two games in hand.
  • Melbourne Victory have scored an average of just 1.21 goals this season but conceded 1.47 goals per game on average.
  • Sydney FC have scored 37 goals this season, an average of 2.17 goals per game.

Finals series football is still the goal

Melbourne Victory really haven’t performed well this season, and they currently sit in 9th place having picked up a vital three points last weekend in their win against Adelaide United. Prior to that they have picked up just two points from a possible 18 and finls series football looked like it might be out of reach. Their victory last weekend though means they are only six points off of 6th place and a good end to the season could see them qualify still.

Melbourne Victory have really struggled in front of goal this season, scoring just 23 times in 19 games. Their defensive record has been poor too with 28 goals conceded, an average of 1.47 goals per game. They have improved in attack in recent weeks but their defence is still struggling, something that could prove to be vital at the end of the season.

A small setback but the title is within reach

Sydney FC suffered just their second loss of the season last weekend, both games ending 1-0 to their biggest rivals Western Sydney Wanderers. They went 13 games unbeaten in between those two results, winning 12 of those games and they are now 10 points clear at the top of the table and they are close to clinching another title to add to their collection.

Sydney are the top scorers in the league this season, scoring 37 times in just 17 games averaging over 2 goals a game on average. This, coupled with their excellent defensive output, sees them hold a commanding lead over the other teams in the league. They’ve conceded just 14 times this season, well under a goal a game and look head and shoulders above their rivals.

Melbourne Victory target another vital win

These two sides have had such differing fortunes this season but following last weekend’s results things are looking a lot more interesting. Melbourne Victory will be hoping to find consecutive wins whilst Sydney will be keen to get back to winning ways following their defeat last weekend. With Melbourne Victory looking like a new side last weekend we’re backing them win either half this weekend, with all three points looking a little out of reach.

We can’t see Sydney FC losing another game in such quick succession but we don’t think they will have it all their own way with Melbourne Victory looking like they could find a result once again. We think this game ends in a stalemate with neither side able to find a win and we’re predicting that the game will end in a 1-1 draw.
