Macarthur vs Sydney Prediction
Macarthur come into this one on the back of a 2-1 defeat away to the Western Sydney Wanderers at CommBank Stadium a couple of weeks ago. That has continued a recent dip in form but they have remained entertaining with their 18 matches in the A League consisting of 59 goals. They now face a Sydney side that most recently shared a goalless draw with struggling Perth Glory last weekend a few days after a thrilling 5-4 aggregate win over Bangkok United in the Round of 16 of the AFC Champions League. These are two of the more entertaining sides in Australia in which both teams scoring looking a good bet.
