The Bullets resurgence has been outstanding, and they have climbed into the top four for the first time in a long time. The absolutely dismantled the Hawks at home in last round’s opener and they were desperately unlucky not to win any of their three prior games. Melbourne snuck away with all the points with a close win over the Kings last weekend and have consolidated their position second in overall standings. In Brisbane I give the Bullets a real chance of winning, and they can certainly cover a line currently set at 4 points.
Betting suggests that this will be the most one-sided match in Week 7 of the A-League and Sydney FC really should be recording a dominant win. They snuck away with the result against a spirited Mariners side last week, while the Phoenix probably produced their best performance of the season to draw with the table-topping Glory. Away from New Zealand however, the Phoenix stand little chance.
This looks like being one of the better contests of the weekend, but the Victory really announced their title intentions last weekend and I’m confident that they will record another win here. Adelaide have found some very good form of their own recently and enter this match off the back of another good win over Brisbane Roar, but this is a massive task for them.
The weekend’s only London Derby will see the Hammers host the Eagles early tomorrow morning and it should be an excellent fixture. The Hammers have seemingly snapped an inconsistent run of form by winning their two most-recent matches, while Palace were comfortably beaten by a ten-man Brighton on Wednesday morning. I’m happy to have something on West Ham at $2.30.
