Wellington vs Melbourne Victory: Top Free Betting Tips

On the back of a home victory, Melbourne Victory are set to visit Wellington Phoenix for the next fixture in A-League on Saturday, 1 April. The Nix will be keen to resume their home-winning sequence after losing three points at the home of Adelaide United previously.

Match Result Prediction: Wellington to Win

Melbourne Victory ended their winless pattern in the last game but the team is still struggling in the away outings. Boys in Blue are without a win in the previous six visits and conceded five defeats in that duration. On the contrary, Wellington Phoenix has won three of the last four hosting duels while ending the remaining one in a draw. The Nix has also registered four victories in the previous five hosting H2Hs against Melbourne Victory, losing zero. Hence, we back the Yellow Army to add three points at the end of this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

Wellington Phoenix will be confident to find the back of the net as they have not missed the target in any of the league outings this season. However, the hosts have arranged only one clean sheet in the previous five home attempts. On the other hand, Melbourne Victory has also been on the scoring side in four of the last five away outings. Four of the last five meetings of these teams have followed BTTS  patterns and we predict the same for this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Wellington

Melbourne Victory has been limited to a maximum of only one goal per game in four of the last five visits. In that duration, the Boys in Blue have conceded a total of nine goals. On the other hand, Wellington Phoenix has rattled the net more than once in three of the last four home meetings while allowing only four goals. The hosts have also scored multiple goals in three of the recent five hosting duels with Melbourne Victory. Given this, we predict a 2-1 lead for the Yellow Army in this game.
