Match description

I back an away win for Wellington Phoenix, primarily due to their superior form and defensive stability. The visitors have won 4 of their last 5 matches and are averaging 2.4 points per game over that period, whereas Macarthur have 2 wins and average 1.2 points per game in their last 5. Macarthur show slightly higher home average xG (1.55 vs 1.31) and a similar number of shots on target (4.42 vs 4.5), but have conceded 13 goals in their last 5 matches (2.6 per game) versus Wellington’s 4 conceded (0.8 per game). Additionally, the hosts fail to score in 33% of home games while the visitors fail to score in only 8% of away matches, with 25% clean sheets for Wellington compared to 8% for Macarthur, which together gives the away side a decisive advantage.
