Melbourne City lost the battle for the 5th place on Sunday when they fell 3-2 away at Wellington Phoenix. However, the loss won’t affect their place in the post season play-offs as they can’t be dropped out of top-six regardless of what happens in this final round of the regular campaign.
Anyhow, we can expect a strong showing from the hosts who clearly want to finish the season on a high with a comprehensive victory against the weakest outfit in the competition. Melbourne City are unbeaten in last 11 home outings in A-League.
Backing the home win in a high-scoring affair has to be the way to go based on everything written above.
