Sydney FC vs Central Coast Mariners prediction
Surprisingly, this encounter serves as a battle between the early league leaders and of those teams propping up the table right now. Sydney FC were one of just three teams who begun the new campaign with defeat, whilst Central Coast Mariners’ 3-2 triumph over Newcastle Jets sees them sitting pretty and wishing the regular season ended right now.
But Sydney FC should come out with a vengeance here after their opening game and really take things to the visitors, putting huge pressure on their backline and playing at a high tempo. But whilst it’s tough to see CCM being able to shut down Sydney FC, it would be no surprise to see the latter exposed on the counter-attack as they push bodies forward. Especially when considering how impressive CCM looked from an offensive perspective last time out. Therefore, backing both teams to score has to be favoured.
