Adelaide United vs Melbourne City Match Preview

Adelaide United is ranked at the 5th place with 21 points and it seems they finally have found some good momentum as they have won the last two matches after a losing streak of four games before that. This dark period made them drop in ranks and they aim straight for the three points here, if they want to reach the playoff semi-finals. In the last five matches, they have scored eight goals, averaging at least a goal per game, but at home, they have scored 12 goals in seven games and managed to score in each game in front of their fans.

Melbourne City, on the other hand, is ranked at the second spot with 27 points. They come after two wins, two draws and a loss over the last five matches. They too will enter the pitch with a clear goal of avoiding defeat here, as they could drop their rank to Perth Glory. With 29 goals in 15 matches so far they have the second-best attack in the league averaging almost two goals per game. When playing on the road, they have found the back of the net in six out of seven games so far. They won the previous game in the league 2-1, but they were at home back then.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score a goal in this one. Adelaide United like I said lost the first h2h game this season, but they made up for that as they won 4-0 in the Cup. Playing at home here I expect them to score at least once. Melbourne City is an offensive team and with players like Maclaren or Noone they can also score.
