A-League Round 27 Betting Tips - Auckland to get back to winning ways in the A-League

Brisbane Roar have been enduring an awful campaign, losing 15 of their 22 matches including their last three. Playing at home has brought little comfort, with Brisbane failing to win any of their 10, drawing once and losing nine times. By contrast, Western United sit in third with 12 wins in 23. Seven victories on the road has helped them to notch the best away record in the division, and I back another away win. 

The two sides have been enduring terrible runs of late, with Adelaide United losing their last four, while Wellington Phoenix have lost five of their last eight. With backing a win for either side difficult, I am looking at both sides scoring. United have seen both teams score in their last six, while Wellington have seen the same in their last five. 

Melbourne Victory have been good of late, winning their last two matches in the A-League. However, they take on an Auckland FC side that continues to defy expectation. The travelling outfit have only lost once on the road, winning six times and drawing four games. With three wins in their last five away from home, I am backing a valuable win on the road for Auckland FC. 

The side playing away from home has won three of the last four meetings between the pair. Melbourne City boast impressive wins over Sydney FC, Central Coast Mariners and Brisbane Roar in their last three, while Western Sydney Wanderers have failed to win in two of their last three.

 

Sydney FC are unbeaten in their last two after beating Adelaide United and drawing with Auckland FC. Meanwhile, Newcastle Jets may have hammered misfiring Central Coast Mariners 6-0 last week, but this has done little to paper over the cracks of a three-game winless run that featured two defeats. Worrying for the Jets is that they have lost to nil on their last two trips to face Sydney FC. 

Central Coast Mariners' season goes from bad to worse, with their 1-0 loss to Melbourne City followed by a humiliating 6-0 hammering at the hands of Newcastle Jets. Macarthur arrive on the back of a much better run, going unbeaten in their last three, with this run featuring two wins. Macarthur boast the second best away record in the league with seven wins, and I back them to notch a crucial win over their misfiring hosts.
