Posted June 3rd, 2021 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: A-League

Market: Over 2.5 goals

Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport

In a contest that could really see chances come thick and fast when this weekend’s A-League fixtures open up, Macarthur will host Wellington on Friday morning.

Starting with the hosts, after wrapping up their spot in the Final Series positions with time to spare, Macarthur should find the mood in their camp at a real high. In their 25 maiden A-League contests this season, they have recorded 11 wins, six draws and eight defeats, scoring 33 and conceding 33 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 39 and opening Friday’s fixtures sat fifth in the table, Australia’s latest franchise know that they could end their regular-season run just outside the AFC Champions League spots. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-1 victory against Western United on the road, the hosts have lost just one of their last eight A-League matchups. It should also be highlighted, Macarthur have seen four of their last five fixtures finish with over 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a hugely impressive run of form throughout the second-half of the campaign, Wellington will have their sights set on signing off their year with a flurry. In their 25 A-League matchups this season, they have landed nine wins, eight draws and eight defeats, scoring 41 and conceding 34 in return. Opening up their final fixture with a points tally of 35, Wellington know that they need real favours and maximum points on Friday if they stand any chance of breaking into the top-six. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 2-2 draw against Perth Glory on home soil, The Phoenix are enjoying an extended 10-match A-League unbeaten run. It should be noted, with each of Wellington’s last four straight matchups finishing with over 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
