Odds: 3/5 @ 1xBet

Two camps who will be desperate to extend on their respective play-off adventures this weekend, Western Sydney will welcome Melbourne Victory to the CommBank Stadium on Saturday morning.

Starting with the hosts, while Western Sydney might have endured a stuttering start when opening the New Year, Alen Stajcic’s side have come roaring back in a remarkable fashion. Signing off their regular-season adventure with a thumping 3-1 victory away at Macarthur, the Wanderers have certainly hit top gear at a crucial time. Heading into March’s international break with an action-packed 4-2 victory against Saturday’s guests, the former Perth boss finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high. In fact, along with registering 10 points from their previous four A-League appearances, Western Sydney are unbeaten in all of their last 12 consecutive showdowns – a purple patch that stems all the way back to January 26th. Pencilled in as a standout contender this weekend, Stajcic’s men will also be excited by their recent dominance on home soil. Including a 4-1 win against Perth on March 2nd, they have mustered 13 points from their last five A-League battles at the CommBank Stadium.

As for the visitors, while Melbourne might have only signed off their regular-season campaign with a 1-1 stalemate at home against Newcastle last week, Arthur Diles’ side wrapped up yet another play-off ticket with plenty of time to spare. Wrapping up April with an eye-catching 2-1 victory away at Macarthur, the Victory have lost just a pair of their previous 10 A-League appearances. Likewise, landing a dramatic 3-2 victory against Wellington last month, Saturday’s guests have secured consecutive wins away from AAMI Park for the first time this season. However, hit with that 4-2 defeat when they last met Western Sydney back on March 15th, Melbourne do hold a nightmare record at the CommBank Stadium. Aside from a remarkable 4-3 victory last season, Diles’ camp have lost all of their other five trips to the Wanderers. It should also be noted, they have shipped at least a pair of goals in those six consecutive visits.

Bet: Both teams to score at Western Sydney Wanderers vs Melbourne Victory 3/5 for Saturday’s A-League play-off tie @ 1xBet
