Match description
I back Melbourne Victory (2) to win: the visitors have scored 42 goals this season vs 27 for Western Sydney and have 12 goals in the last 5 matches vs 5 for the hosts. Western have 0 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats in their last 5, averaging 0.2 points per game, while Melbourne have 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, averaging 1.6 points per game. The home defence is weak — Western conceded 13 goals in the last 5 (2.6 per game) and 41 this season, whereas Melbourne conceded 7 in the last 5 (1.4 per game) and 33 this season. Melbourne post higher away xG (1.74 vs 1.55 home xG), take more shots (16.42 vs 14.25) and more shots on target (5.08 vs 4.67) with better conversion (8% vs 7%). Although Western have greater home possession (51% vs 48%), that advantage does not translate into goals or points, so I favor the away triumph.
