Auckland FC vs Melbourne Victory prediction
Auckland FC boasts the second-best defence in the A-League, having conceded just 24 goals across 23 games. That always gives them a great chance of winning any match, regardless of the opposition and they head into this one needing a win after having lost and drawn their last two against Macarthur and Adelaide United respectively.
However, their recent slump doesn’t reflect the fact that this is still a very good team. Melbourne Victory are inconsistent and were recently shut out by Wellington Phoenix. At home and with the motivation of potentially going top of the table, back Auckland to get back to winning ways.
