Melbourne City vs Sydney FC prediction
Sydney FC are looking not only to avoid consecutive away defeats, but also to reach the summit of the table, which they’ll do with a victory in this game. Melbourne City have not had a good time of things recently with just a point from their last three matches, conceding five goals. But they’ll likely set up more conservatively here despite being at home, knowing the quality their opponents possess from an attacking perspective.
It may be the case that Sydney FC are forced to be patient over the course of this encounter, with the hosts keeping bodies behind the ball and making themselves extremely difficult to break down. Chances could be in short supply and as has been the case in three of both Melbourne City and Sydney FC’s last four league fixtures, under 2.5 goals scored looks on the cards.
Melbourne City vs Sydney FC tip: Under 2.5 goals
