Melbourne Victory vs Macarthur FC: Top Free Betting Tips

Round 25 in A-League featured the two lower-ranked sides, Melbourne Victory and Macarthur going head-to-head on Sunday, 23 April. Victory lost the last game to Wellington Phoenix while the Bulls dropped three points against Newcastle Jets.

Match Result Prediction: Melbourne Victory to Win

Melbourne Victory is without a victory in the last three league affairs and has conceded two defeats. However, the Big V has lost only one home in the previous six matches at AAMI Park, winning three of them. On the other hand, Macarthur has been dismal away from Campbelltown Stadium and tasted seven consecutive defeats on the road. Melbourne Victory has also been great in the H2Hs against the Cows and won the last three meetings in a row. Hence, we set Victory as our favourites to fancy their chances in front of the home fans.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

Despite going winless for straight five games, Macarthur has succeeded to hit the back of the net in all of those matches. However, the Bulls have struggled on the defensive end and have not claimed a single clean sheet since the start of February. On the other hand, Melbourne Victory has failed to score in only one of the last five league affairs. Four of the previous five matches between these clubs have concluded with BTTS outcomes. In light of the current scenario, we expect both teams to get on the scoresheet once again in this fixture.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Melbourne Victory

Macarthur has hit the back of the net only once in four of the previous five matches in the A-League. The Bulls’ defence has been caught napping during that course as they leaked at least twice in four games. On the other hand, Melbourne Victory has rattled the net at least twice in three of the previous five games at AAMI Park. The victory also scored eight goals in just the last three meetings with Macarthur. Therefore, we predict the Boys in Blue to earn a 2-1 lead before the referee blows his full-time whistle.

Melbourne Victory vs Macarthur FC: Form, Recent Games, and News

Melbourne Victory Preview

Victory travelled to Western Sydney Wanderers in the last game where they witnessed a 2-1 lead. Nishan Velupillay equalised the score in the early second half but Wanderers’ Amor Layouni’s late strike in the 81st minute saw Melbourne lose three points. The Big V’s readiness has also been less-than-ideal with Nani and Jake Brimmer missing the game due to injuries.

Macarthur FC Preview

After saving only one point against Wanderers, the Bulls returned to their losing form with a 2-1 defeat against Newcastle Jets. A five-match winless streak has thrown the team to the second-last position in the standings, having only a one-point gap from the foot of the table. Head coach Mile Sterjovski will also have to deal with the injury-related absences of Daniel Arzani and Ulises Davila.
