Auckland FC vs Wellington Phoenix prediction
Auckland FC were not expected to go down against Newcastle Jets but that’s exactly what happened last time out with the Jets beating Auckland 1-2. After such a result, a big reaction should be on the cards from Auckland. Expect a very attacking style of play from them against a Phoenix defence without a clean sheet to their name this season.
But Wellington are unlikely to back down from such a challenge and Auckland themselves have not had it all their own way defensively in recent games. At home against an inconsistent visiting side, they’ll be expected to win but backing both teams to score also looks a shrewd play,
