Auckland vs Melbourne City prediction
Auckland finished the season poorly as their 2-2 draw with Sydney in New South Wales last weekend extended their winless run of form to five matches as they finished third in the table, having won the regular season last year.
They now face a Melbourne City side that had surged into playoff contention with a run of five victories and a draw in six matches before finishing their regular season with a 2-1 defeat at home to ten-man Adelaide United due to a last gasp winner last week.
Melbourne City were undone late on last weekend but will fancy themselves to bounce back against an Auckland side heading into the playoffs in abysmal form.
Auckland vs Melbourne City tip: Double chance – Melbourne City to win or draw
