Sydney FC vs Western United Predictions

• Sydney won just one of their last five A-League matches.
• Western United won three of their last four matches
• Sydney drew five of their last nine league games, finishing 1-1 with their opponent in the most recent trio of ties.

Sydney look unmotivated

With their place at the top of the A-League standings long secured, Sydney have really taken their eye off the ball in recent weeks, as evidenced by their poor run of one win in five assignments since the restart.

There is still a massive nine-point gap between the table toppers and Melbourne City in second spot however, which suggests that Sydney are unlikely to crank the intensity for their final game of the regular campaign.

In-form Western United – who still need points to ensure they secure a Final Series play-off berth – can take advantage of their unmotivated host’s malaise this week.

United have been in fine form since the resumption of play, taking nine points from a possible 12 on offer after three wins from four, notching an impressive nine goals along the way.

With their incentives to perform greater than Sydney’s and the momentum from their excellent run pushing them on, Western United look excellent value in the double chance market this week, while our correct score prediction points towards a 1-1 draw.

Sydney drew each of their last two A-League assignments by that score, and having shared the spoils in five of their last nine contests overall, another stalemate looks likely.
