Melbourne City vs Wellington Phoenix prediction

Two clubs in positive frames of mind are all set to do battle with Wellington Phoenix able to move above Melbourne City with a fourth straight victory here. But the latter have won their last two and won’t buckle easily. This should lead to an intriguing battle which is really capable of going either way.

Neither will want to give up that all-important first goal and we may see a defensive start from both which could be maintained the longer this one stays level. Therefore, chances could wind up being in short supply and regardless of who claims the points, backing under 2.5 goals feels like a shrewd play.
