Wellington Phoenix vs Auckland FC prediction
Auckland FC boasts seven points from a possible nine to begin the new campaign which sees them top of the table. But Wellington Phoenix aren’t far behind and here at home, they have an opportunity to make a real statement against a club expected to be in the hunt for the big prize this season.
Auckland are notoriously tough to score against, having conceded just once so far in the league, but on the flip-side are averaging only a goal per game, which evens things out somewhat. When considering the threat posed by Wellington, Auckland may well see a draw as a good result on the road. The same thought process could apply for the Phoenix, knowing that Auckland are top of the table and unbeaten, so backing the spoils to be shared is worth considering.
